About Me!

Welcome to my class!

  

   Hello. My name is Khadije Kourani. I graduated from the University of Michigan-Dearborn in 2016 with my Master’s Degree in Educational Technology and Masters of Art in Teaching. Along with this diploma, I received a secondary teaching certification with endorsements in Mathematics and educational technology. 

            

    The road to becoming a teacher was a great experience for me. Although teaching was not my professional goal from the outset, I am glad that I made the switch toward this field. I believe that educators hold a very crucial role in society. They are the expediters of tomorrow’s leaders.

   

    As a mother, I have had the privilege of watching my kids advance through grade school. In these years, I noticed that a big part of their success was attributed to their teachers’ dedication. I was touched by this and soon realized that I too wanted to be able to motivate young students, and put them on the right path in their education. I believe that teachers should have the courage to make a difference. They have the potential to impact their community and positively influence the lives of their students. As a educator, I aspire to engage and challenge all my students both within and beyond the classroom so that they have the opportunity to grow and mature into leaders of education and reform.
