How It Works
The Itqan Teacher Excellence Program is designed to empower Arabic-speaking educators with evidence-based tools and training to improve their classroom practice.
Teachers engage in a development cycle, where they:
1
Identify an area of focus
2
Explore the principles in a course
3
Choose and adapt a teaching technique
4
Integrate it into practice
5
Review its impact
6
Share and refine within a PLC
This approach builds sustainable habits and drives real improvement in teaching and learning.
