Hello everyone
How was your day?
Had a good day at school?
Today I am not in my best mood.. I am going on the dark side abit,
don't worry, I will be smiling and shinning again
so, should I introduce myself, I am a teacher
yes! that's how I like to introduce myself, after my name ofcourse, and I don't mean showing off
I remember when I was in NY, visiting my iEARN best friend and mentor, Lynn Rosen,
whenever she introduced us, she would introduce Fatma my friend who went with me she would
say " Fatma Al Mamaari. an English teacher and former fulbrighter, and she would look at me
and I would say " Asma, just an English teacher"
well, I love to be a teacher
and I would do anything to improve myself so I can be a better teacher for my students
that's why I took this course and why I became an iEARNer at the first place
Journalism can open many doors for the young minds to think beyond the news itself
to put their voice and hopefully someone would listen
everyone, if you have a dream don't wait, go and reach it, your day is today and your mountain
is waiting so go and climb it,, it is the climb that's makes the difference
somepeople, stand at the bottom afraid to try and others just get in their way and it doesn't
matter how many times you fail, you just keep trying, until you reach the top but remember it
never ends there
if you reach this line, I am so thankful that you were kind enought to read my lines
keep climbing
Asma
P. S I will share with you one of the pictures that I took with Lynn, Ed in the iEARN office and the two boys in the other picture are two Omani students, they are now close friends, we txt daily, I met them in the conference, and they are still young iearners, they are both in SQU,
