As-salamu Alaikum!

My name is Sobia Khaliq, and I’m so excited to be part of the Al-Aaml Online Team! This is my fifth year teaching elementary school, and I feel truly grateful every day to do what I love, Alhamdulillah.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts (BA), Bachelor of Education (BEd), and Master of Education (MEd) from the University of Calgary. My specialty is creating meaningful, hands-on learning experiences that spark curiosity and help students make real-world connections. I’m passionate about building a positive classroom environment where every child feels valued, confident, and inspired to learn.

I became a teacher because I believe deeply in the power of education to shape lives and inspire change. Watching students grow, discover their strengths, and develop a lifelong love for learning is what makes teaching so rewarding for me.Outside of school, I love spending time with my wonderful husband and our three energetic boys. We enjoy hiking, biking, and baking together—our home is always full of laughter (and usually something delicious in the oven!).

I’m also passionate about mental and physical health. I spend a lot of time reading, researching, and speaking about it at teacher conferences. I believe that nurturing both the mind and body is essential for students and educators alike, and I strive to bring that sense of balance and well-being into my classroom each day, Insha’Allah.
