In this teacher's wake is a line of students following behind like ducklings.
“I am honored to be the ambassador and represent my country, my language and rich culture in a good way,” Abu Alsamah said. “I want to disrupt the stereotypes and show the world how capable and successful Saudi women are.”
Abu Alsamah finished her undergraduate degree in early childhood education at Saudi Arabia’s University of Dammam. The educator earned a scholarship that allowed her to study in the U.S. where she started attending the University of Colorado Boulder in 2015. She became the first Saudi Arabian woman at CU to graduate with a master’s degree in educational equity and cultural diversity, plus a dual endorsement in special education and culturally and linguistically diverse education.
“All kids deserve a high-quality education and as a teacher, this is my responsibility I am carrying,” Abu Alsamah said. “I have to do whatever extra steps to provide them that high quality. Do I need to get another degree? I will do that. Learn a new language? I will do that.” Before the market opened, Abu Alsamah spent two months with her students helping them learn about small businesses. She allowed them to choose a product to make and sell, taught them about logos, purchasing supplies, salesmanship and found sponsorship that provided each student with $50 to create their product.
