“As a principal and teacher, I know we make a big difference in children's lives. Even if they don't remember us later, the lessons we teach them stay with them. We help them feel hopeful, loved, and confident in themselves.
It's a special job because we get to shape who they become. I believe education is about more than just facts; it's about building strong, caring people who can make the world better. That's why I'm passionate about what I do—it's all about helping kids grow into kind and capable adults. May Allah bless the educators around the world, Insya Allah.”

From their endless curiosity to their boundless creativity, these tiny humans never cease to amaze and inspire me. Observing their interactions and watching their understanding grow provides daily reminders of the profound impact of our work.

My greatest inspiration comes from my family and all the children I have the privilege to teach. Their enthusiasm, curiosity and resilience inspire me to be the best educator I can be.
I find immense joy in engaging with children, nurturing their growth through teaching, and witnessing their development unfold, much like observing a flower gradually blossom into its full, breathtaking beauty.
To all my children, I didn’t call you 'my students,' I called you 'My Children' as I love each one of you with all my heart.”
Teacher Shira
Principal of GENIUS AULAD Kuala Terengganu
“After a decade of being a kindergarten teacher, I give all that I have, hoping to inspire the innocent hearts I work with. Memories fade with time and lessons may be forgotten, but experiences shape a human being and leave a lasting mark.
As a kindergarten teacher, I have the privilege of guiding these early experiences and discoveries, and for that, I am forever grateful. I strive to create an environment where learning is joyful and meaningful, fostering growth in every child's journey. Each day brings new opportunities to impact lives positively.

“The most memorable moment is when I represented GENIUS AULAD Bertam to receive the MOST POPULAR GENIUS AULAD CENTRE AWARD from the GAINS Education Group in 2019. My team and I were so proud and excited to receive this award, as all our hard work in gaining trust from parents was paid off. I was also nominated as the BEST PRINCIPAL in the same year, and I am

Teacher Rina
Principal of GENIUS AULAD Bayan Baru
“There are so many memorable moments to be cherished. Still, the most notable is when GENIUS AULAD Bayan Baru was selected to receive Franchise Excellence Award 2017 in 2 categories: Excellence in Education Delivery and Compliance and champion in Preschool Performance.
I cherished this achievement as part of my journey as principal because it represents GENIUS AULAD Bayan Baru as one successful team that includes teachers, parents, and children! Alhamdulillah.
Being in the Early Childhood Education field made me realize the importance of being patient, love and respecting. To my fellow teachers, let's try our best to purify our intention, which is to educate the children for the sake of Allah. And to my dearest parents, please trust the learning process and believe that your children will shine and improve at their own time and pace. Insha Allah.”
Teacher Nadia
Principal of GENIUS AULAD Kangar
"Educating a child isn't just about preparing them to read early. It involves helping them achieve milestones physically, cognitively, socially, and emotionally. This is what I’ve learned in training with GENIUS AULAD.
These skills can be enhanced through play and fun games. That's why, for me, GENIUS AULAD is the perfect place for children. With an emphasis on learning beyond the classroom and integrating play into education, children will learn to read, write, and count through real-life experiences and enjoyable games.
Therefore, parents shouldn't worry if their child can't read by the age of four. It's important for children to have fun and enjoy their childhood while simultaneously strengthening these four key milestones. Insha Allah, from my experience, children who play will achieve more than those who do not."
Teacher Mimi
Principal of GENIUS AULAD Seremban 2
“I am incredibly grateful for a team of excellent teachers who are all deeply committed to their responsibility of educating our students here in GENIUS AULAD. No words can describe how astonishing the progress that our students have shown us is. It almost feels like the heavyweights have been lifted off our shoulders.
Choosing the path of becoming a teacher has always been my dream. Personally, the valuable experience I had for more than a decade in my profession of choice has matured me and taught me to adapt to any situation on any given day.
Young children are not easy to handle. They have their tantrums and their skills. It was never easy, and I don't think it will ever be easy, especially when you have the responsibility of being a teacher, but I believe that it will all be worth it in the end.”
Teacher Mimi
Principal of GENIUS AULAD Kuala Selangor
“Throughout my journey as a teacher, I learned a few important things and kept them in my heart as a life principle. Most of us inevitably think that children are just children. No, they are more than that. They are our future. If we treat them right from their "gold ages" (0-6 years old), they will become somebody later. Insha Allah.
Learning is not only about finishing the syllabus in the book. IT IS MORE THAN THAT! It is about confidence, thinking out of the box, fun, the child's social aspects, manners, and exploring more about themselves. Other than that, this field will not make you a billionaire, but it gives us tons of rewards to keep for our Akhirah.
Every single word, letter, and love we pour unto our children will be an Ibadah for us. I hope this will remind other teachers and principals too about the responsibility of our job.”
Teacher Mariam
Principal of GENIUS AULAD Setia Alam

Each educator is portrayed as a Murabbi and as the chosen one in building the trust in each child as their first mentor in the education journey after their parents. This noble accountability must be conveyed diligently along with sincerity. Once these values comply, you will never fail. Insha Allah.”
Teacher Azlin
Principal of GENIUS AULAD Adda Heights
“The best part about being a teacher and being involved in this institution is that I also learn all the time. I've learned a lot from my students by just looking at their behaviors and innocence. It somehow helped me figured out how to be a better adult. The emotions when dealing with children also differ each day—hearing their jokes, innocent questions, and spontaneous remarks boosted my day!
I've always believed in leading by example and showing them lots of love and fondness in educating our children. Please don't force them too hard. Let them grow by constantly guiding them to enable them to develop to their full potential. Every child is precious and deserves to be loved, nurtured, and honored."
Teacher Azah
Principal of GENIUS AULAD Cyberjaya
“Being a teacher is an enlightening experience, largely because of what the children teach me. Their needs require me to be patient, creative, and energetically engaged. At times, I even find myself taking on roles like a nurse, mechanic, or their favorite cartoon character. Their boundless imagination often surpasses adult perceptions.
From Monday to Friday, the children add vibrant colors to my days. Their hugs, playful spirits, and candid sharing of "little secrets" about their daily lives before coming to school.
Every year brings its unique set of challenges, as each child has their own distinctive attitudes, characters, and behaviors. Despite these differences, they all strive to listen and engage with the lessons I teach, for which I am deeply grateful.”
Teacher Anis
Principal of GENIUS AULAD The Prime Puchong
One memorable incident that stands out is when a child came up to me with a small handmade card expressing gratitude for the support and guidance provided during a challenging time. The joy of witnessing children succeed and grow, coupled with the continuous learning journey that teaching entails, fuels my passion for this profession.
“Childhood is not a race to see how quickly a child can read, write, and count. Childhood is a small window of time to learn and develop at the pace which is right for each child.”
Lastly, let us continue to inspire and empower the next generation of learners, shaping a brighter future for all. Insha Allah.
Teacher Aishah

Dear parents and educators, remember that not all children in a family have the same thinking. So, we are not allowed to differentiate them because every child has a range of strengths. Last but not least, I would love to share this with everyone, which is "every day is a chance to be better." Insha Allah.”
