About math problem solvingOk, I know why your here. You want to know on what authority do I have to write such things about maths, teachers and tutors.Who am I?
So, why and how am I writing this site about maths and teaching? Read all about it in my little secret
Now, I will tell you what I am and what I do to pass the time. I am Rakiya. I am 33 (at the time of writing this 2010), I live a muffled life. Married. I have 2 little kids (3 if you count my husband) that take up most of my time. When I am not entertaining them I am teaching maths and Arabic thajweed to adults and/or kids.
This picture is still in working progress. The pictures are also upside down, If you are Arabic you will already know that!
I also paint intricate designer nails for special occasions.
I am originally bengali, which can mean one of 2 things, India or Bangladesh. I am Bangladeshi. I have the privelage of living in the UK. My grandfather jumped off the ships 50 odd years ago.
My grandfather opened up one of the very first Indian restaurant in the UK, most certainly the first in Merseyside. As desirable and fortunate restaurants and catering looks on the outside, the sheer hard work that goes into it forced my parents to educate us as highly as possible to keep us (my 4 other sisters) out of the industry. However, I did spend the first half of my life studying with books in one hand and serving customers with the other. That was enough to keep me out anyway!
