Chemistry teacher, mentor, advisor (Feb, 2021

Dear students,
As we embark on our noble journey as teachers, I want to take a moment to reflect on the profound impact we have on the lives of countless young minds at Mashal Science Academy and beyond. Each day, we hold the torch of knowledge, guiding our students towards a brighter future.
Teaching is not merely a profession; it is a calling. It is an opportunity to shape the future, to inspire minds, and to ignite the flames of curiosity in the hearts of our students. Our classrooms are not just spaces for lectures; they are sanctuaries of learning, where the seeds of wisdom are sown.
In my three years at Mashal Science Academy, I have had the privilege to assume various roles—chemistry teacher, Head of examinations, and manager. Each position has taught me invaluable lessons about the power of education and the responsibility that comes with it.
As a chemistry teacher, I discovered that beyond the chemical equations and reactions, we have the power to instill a love for learning. By relating concepts to real-life applications and engaging students in hands-on experiments, we nurture a genuine interest in the subject.
As Head of examinations, I understood the significance of fair assessments that encourage growth rather than merely evaluating performance. Assessment should inspire students to identify their strengths, acknowledge their weaknesses, and strive for continuous improvement.
Lastly, as a manager, I learned that strong leadership isn't about control, but about fostering an environment of collaboration and support. When we work as a cohesive team, we create an ecosystem where students thrive, teachers flourish, and knowledge blossoms.
Fellow educators, let us remember that our role extends beyond the confines of the classroom. We are mentors, confidants, and role models. Each interaction we have with our students leaves an impression, shaping their character and influencing their choices.
In the face of challenges and setbacks, let us not be discouraged. Instead, let us embrace them as opportunities for growth—for ourselves and our students. Our journey as educators is an ongoing process of learning, adapting, and evolving.
So, let us continue to kindle the flame of knowledge in our classrooms. Let us ignite the passion for learning in the hearts of our students, for they are the torchbearers of tomorrow. As we nurture young minds, we leave an indelible mark on society and contribute to a brighter and more enlightened future for all.
May we always remember the profound impact we have and the privilege we carry as educators at Mashal Science Academy.
With unwavering dedication and boundless enthusiasm,
Allah Rakha
Educator at Mashal Science Academy
