MA AUDIO STORYTELLING FOR RADIO AND PODCAST. UCL SHS

Throughout my career, I have worked diligently as a bilingual teacher, teacher trainer and a headteacher, striving to create nurturing and inclusive learning environments where learners can thrive. I have consistently incorporated storytelling techniques into my teaching and training approach, recognising its ability to engage students and trainees emotionally and intellectually.

Storytelling holds a central place in Arabic and Islamic culture, exemplified by the tales found in the Quran and the rich folklore traditions. Acknowledging the inherent cultural significance of storytelling, I employed this pedagogical technique to help refugee children learn, maintain, and develop their home language while simultaneously acquiring the language of their hosting communities.

I aspire to take my experience into a new level and upscale my skills, not only to use in teaching and training but also to reach wider audience and build bridges through audio storytelling and film making.
