Why do some families choose a female teacher for their daughter?
This is a personal choice, and families have their own reasons. Many parents say they simply feel more at ease when their daughter learns with a woman, and some girls find it easier to ask questions and read aloud without feeling shy.
The teacher speaks English, Urdu and Arabic, and she has experience teaching children outside the Arab world who do not speak Arabic at home. That helps a daughter who is growing up in the USA, UK, Canada or Australia feel understood from the first class.
