A WORD FROM OUR FOUNDERS
“When I started teaching 25 years ago, like any young and new teacher, I hoped to make a difference in the lives of my students. My life has changed so much since then, but my love for education only got stronger. I see my students now transforming before my eyes and I couldn’t be more committed to helping every student realize their potential. Teaching is my life line- if I stop teaching I stop living.”
Ebtesam Eid, Mother and Founder
“I never thought I’d be a teacher, till I started tutoring Arabic at American University in DC. At first it was a job, but quickly I found myself fully invested in the lives of my students and their success. The way my students lit up when we played Arabic music and I saw them grow class, I knew I’d have to go into a career focused on education. It’s true what they say the apple doesn’t fall from the tree!”
