Malak Makroumi is a high school student at Burlington High School whose vision for education extends far beyond the walls of a classroom. At an early stage in her academic journey, she is already driven by a powerful belief that learning is a universal right and a shared responsibility that connects people across the world. What inspires Malak most is the idea of using education as a bridge between cultures, communities, and opportunities. She understands that while students may grow up in different parts of the world, the desire to learn, grow, and succeed is something they all share. This understanding has shaped her aspiration to become a Zoom teacher with SmartKids Ghana.
For Malak, teaching is not simply about delivering lessons, it is about connection. It is about creating a space where students feel seen, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential. She is drawn to the opportunity to help students from different backgrounds access quality learning, especially those who may not otherwise have the same educational resources
Her motivation is rooted in empathy and a genuine desire to make a difference.
Malak believes that even small acts of teaching and encouragement can have a lasting impact on a child’s confidence and future. By stepping into the role of a Zoom teacher, she hopes to contribute to something larger than herself, a global effort to make education more inclusive and accessible.
In pursuing this opportunity with SmartKids Ghana, Malak is taking a meaningful step toward becoming a globally conscious leader. She represents a generation of students who are not only thinking about their own futures but also actively seeking ways to uplift others.
Her journey is a reminder that impact does not depend on age or geography, but on intention. With compassion, curiosity, and a strong sense of purpose, Malak Makroumi is ready to help shape a world where learning truly knows no borders. Welcome to the family Malak, you are deeply loved and appreciated. Thank you for embarking on this journey with us.
