My name is Doha Elsamra, and I have been an educator for 25 years. I am currently the Assistant Principal at QAS, where I support teachers and students in their growth and development. I have worked extensively with the PYP program for 9 years in an international school in Egypt before moving to Qatar, where I am in my first year. As a mother of two college students, I am passionate about fostering lifelong learning in students and empowering educators to provide the best learning experiences.

I am attending the ATLs workshop to enhance my understanding of how to effectively support teachers in integrating ATLs into their classrooms and to explore strategies for implementing ATLs at a whole-school level. My goal is to ensure that students not only acquire essential academic knowledge but also develop the skills they need to thrive as independent learners and global citizens.

My name is Nadine Daya, and I am an experienced educator with over 13 years in the field of education, specifically within the IB Primary Years Programme. Currently, I serve as the PYP Coordinator at Qatar Academy Sidra (QAS), where I am passionate about fostering student agency and developing transdisciplinary learning experiences. Prior to this, I held the same role for the past three years at a PYP school in Beirut, Lebanon.

I have worked closely with students, teachers, and school leaders to create meaningful, inquiry-based learning environment. I am committed to cultivating engaging and inclusive learning experiences that empower students to take ownership of their educational journey.

I am excited to bring my extensive experience and passion for inquiry-driven education to a new environment, contributing to the growth and development of the PYP program. My goal is to continue fostering global citizenship and lifelong learning in my students, preparing them for the future through authentic and meaningful learning experiences.

My name is Hodan, and I work as a Learning Support Instructional Assistant. I am passionate about helping students thrive and can't wait to learn from you all. I believe the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) nurtures the whole child, fostering not just academic growth but also social, emotional, and personal development. I particularly appreciate how the ATL (Approaches to Learning) skills empower students to become independent, reflective, and lifelong learners. I cannot wait to take what I learn to my students.
