About Me

As Salaamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakaatu:

My name is Maryam Abdul-Zahir, and I am the new 3^rd teacher at Tooba Academy North. I am currently working on my bachelor’s degree in early childhood education.  Inshaa Allah, the time in our classroom will be filled with experiences that are linked to the Ohio Learning Standards. These standards were developed by the Ohio Department of Education, and are designed to meet the developmental needs of your child now.  My intentions are to provide a strong foundation for your child's elementary years alongside the Third Grade Guarantee. By teaching these standards, we are ensuring that the children in my class are growing into capable, curious, caring, and confident Islamic leaders and learners.

I have a true passion for working with our youngest learners!  I believe that education is the essence of knowledge. In Islam we have an obligation as educator to help each child progress in all areas of their development—deen, academics, social, language, and motor—is a challenge that I am honored to accept daily.  I strive to create a community of learners that nurtures this growth in a positive, fun environment.

Inshaa Allah, I look forward to working together with you as partners in your child’s growth and development!
