My Personal Life

My self Nabeela Azami, born in Banaras, brought up in Malegaon and Vaniyambadi, settled in Bangalore, has a very loving and caring family. I belong to a family of educationists. My father is an Arabic scholar,  who studied in Madeenah university and mother is a home maker, making my upbringing  in the Islamic culture. I never really knew what is meant to be just a kid, I was always matured for my age.

I had a lot of people who invested in me and I excelled in most of my  varied hobbies.I did well in school. Often knowing how to do complex topics in different subjects, before it had even been introduced to our class. I would like to share the best critics by my Maths teacher that “ I teach my teachers”. 

Looking back I am sure I was quite smug, although I did not realize it at that time. Unfortunately self awareness was not some thing I learnt until many years later.

My primary studies was completed at ‘Jamiah Muhammadiyah Education Society, Malegaon’. My father was the Principal of the institute, for which I was always tagged as  the‘Prinipal’s Daughter’, initially I enjoyed being special, soon I realized that I need to have my own identity as well. God Almighty provided the chance by my father’s transfer to Tamil Nadu, where I got admitted in ‘Islamiah Girls Higher Secondry School’.Vaniyambadi. Over there I was  ‘MYSELF’.

In my junior level of college, I was involved in many extra curricular activities, such as elocution, recitation of Quranic verses, debates etc. I continued the trend of just meeting my potential, only taking on new challenges, when some one brought it to my notice that I would be perfect for the opportunity.

  My career

At the age of 19 I got married to a man who lent his unconditional support, motivating me to further my education and help me persue my passion. That’s how I could do my graduation.

 I got an opportunity to work as an Arabic studies teacher for toddlers in

 ‘Oasis International School’ where I was very much fascinated by the montessori materails and the unique approach, within the spur of  the moment I decided to enroll for The diploma in Montessori , which was a turning point of my life, where I started exploring the children more in terms of their needs.   

I developed a deep interest in Psychology after my Montessori diploma. During my job at ‘Oasis’ I underwent child counselling diploma, but felt it is still not sufficient and I need to learn more, that is how I completed my BA psychology in the year 2013. I was approached by the institute ‘Saamar International Islamic School’, where I got an opportunity to work as an  HOD of Arabic and Islamic Studies, initially I worked as a Montessori directress too.
