Growing up, I've always wanted to be a footballer and always wanted to see a South Asian footballer player in the PL (even more so a Bangladeshi). This video is so wholesome and makes me feel so proud to be a British Bangladeshi. Representation is important.

Started my new school.
Introduced myself to my class, opened up about my stammer too.
Then got pupils to write their name and a fact about them on a post-it note.
Got to a pupil who didn't want to read hers. It said..
"My name is ..... and I stammer too".

Just realised.. since the age of 3... I've never left education ๐ซ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Playgroup, nursery, primary, secondary, sixth form, uni and straight into teaching ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Literally been in school all my life ๐คฃ
5 years ago I was told I'd struggle to become a teacher because of my stammer. This was told me to by an advisor at a teaching event..
5 years later, I became an advisor at a train to teach event inspiring others to get into teaching ๐

What's the funniest story you've heard at work?
In my last school, my colleague didn't turn up to work and didn't call in to report her absence.
I rang her at 10am and asked her "where are you".
She replied, "In bed, having a lie in cos it's the weekend".
It was Friday ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Tomorrow is Eid for Muslims. Many of your friends, colleagues and students will be celebrating tomorrow. Here's a few facts about Eid that you may not have known:

Y11 pupil of mine had his last exam today. We've not got along this year. It has been challenging teaching him and rarely seen eye to eye. As he walked out, I shook his hand, he then said "sir, you're actually the only person I'm going to miss".
Was absolutely shocked ๐ซ
There are only 2 recognised festive days in Islam which are Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha. We therefore do not celebrate Christmas.
We call Jesus "Isa" and Mary "Maryam" which is in Arabic.

As Christmas is almost here, just thought it would be a good time to mention that Jesus (pbuh: peace be upon him) is also a major prophet in Islam.
Many non-muslims are not aware of this.
Below are some things Islam believe about Jesus (pbuh) ๐
Hundreds of thousands of Muslim students will be fasting next week in the UK. More than ever, awareness needs to be raised.

In my last school, I taught two brothers who were called "Zinedine" and "Zidane", clearly named after one of the greatest footballer ever.

Didn't realise parents would. I think as teachers, we've always thought it would be respectful. Think we're just very used to never saying first names in front of children. But moving forward, we should always ask beforehand in meetings how they would like to be addressed
I'm now an uncle to four nephews. Yahya, Yusha, Yousuf and now Younus which translates to John, Joshua, Joseph and Jonah. Named after great prophets. Please keep my sister in your prayers
Joe Biden is a person who stammers.
If he's good enough to be POTUS, then I'm good enough to be a teacher and you're all good enough to be who you want to be ๐ a stammer shouldn't stop you from doing what you've always wanted to do

Gutted that Ramadan now come to an end. It's the first ramadan that I ate around my family every single day, first ramadan that I've managed to fulfil all my prayers on time and it's the first ramadan that I've not physically been at work (made a huge difference). Alhamdulillah

Hi
@stormzy
, glad you're talking about stuttering
It's a topic close to my heart. People who stutter do understand what you're talking about.

As a BAME teacher, the amount of times I've told BAME students that they need to work twice as hard is unbelievable. Why did I have to do that? It's because it's the truth.
As it is Easter, I thought it would be good for you to know what Muslims think of Jesus (peace be upon him).
A Muslim cannot be a muslim if he/she doesn't believe in Jesus Christ (peace be upon him).

Some Muslim scholars believe Mary was a Prophet herself but this isnโt 100% confirmed by majority of scholars. Mary is the only woman to be mentioned by name in the entire Qurโan.
Jesus (peace be upon him) is a very special person and Prophet to Muslims. Jesus is mentioned in the Quran 25 times, with an entire chapter named after his righteous mother, the Virgin Mary.
There are so many teacher phrases that we use in the classroom BUT what are the phrases you've come across in ZOOM/TEAMS video meetings?
I'll start:
*Oh, can anyone hear me*
*Think we'll wait for a few mins for others*

Other female figures are identified only by their relation to others, such as the wife of Adam and the mother of Moses etc. Mary is mentioned more times in the Qurโan than in the entire New Testament
I believe there's a few schools who are still open till Wednesday. If you are.. I'm happy to run free stammer support sessions at your school. Please get in touch ๐๐
I get so many weird looks when I tell people (mainly non asians) that I live with my parents. I'm 26 and my parents are entering old age. It's my duty to look after them and I want to live with them for rest of my life (vice versa). I'm also the only son and the youngest.
To conclude, Jesus pbuh is a prominent figure. We as muslims look upto him and try to follow his authentic teachings.
The reasons as to why Muslims don't see Christmas as an official celebration is Islam is for another day ๐
Hope you enjoyed reading some of the facts ๐
9 million students are back to school tomorrow. Majority of them look upto us for different reasons. Give them the normality and support they deserve. We go again until Christmas โโโ
Sent a pupil out of my lesson (constantly disrupting his peers).
Didn't realise that he took his book with him.
I continued teaching and saw him at the corner of my eye looking through the door..
He was actually making notes from outside the classroom ๐๐

Teachers. How old are at the first cohort of students you ever taught now?
For example, I started teaching in 2015. I taught a Y11 group who are now 19/20 years old.
*phone rings during lesson*
Me: Whoever that phone belongs to, switch it off right now.. you're not allowed to have it switched on in school
*phone still ringing*
Pupils: Sir, it's the builder's phone outside.
Me: Oh.

How to support students/adults who stammer when teaching remotely
My name is Abed Ahmed and Iโm a secondary school maths teacher who stammers.
There are 8.89 million school aged children in the UK. Eight percent of children stammer at some point, albeit temporarily.
As Muslims, we believe Jesus to be a Prophet of God and not the son of God. We believe God has no children or family, failing to acknowledge this takes you out of the fold of Islam and is a huge sin. We also believe that Jesus was never killed, nor was he crucified.
*THREAD*
Tomorrow is the first back for many children. 9 million school children are in the UK. 720,000 will develop a stammer at some point. 270,000 of them will continue to stammer for LIFE. Please read this thread or DM if you'd like these infographics.
I'm opening an education centre in Lozells (NW Bham) - one of the most deprived wards in the UK.
If any school has old calculators, teaching whiteboards and MWBS that they're looking to get rid off. Please get in touch.
Happy to collect
