About us
Founder of the educational portal
Rafia Khalfan Alshaer Alsuwaidi. Graduated from Zayed University, Dubai, UAE, Bachelor of Science in Education, Specialization: Early Childhood Education with GPA 3.5. Recipient of the Sheikha Shamsa bint Suhail Award for creative women in the educational field (first session 2011). Some of my achievements: created kindergarten activity books called “whdaty وحداتي” level one and level two in 2013, established an educational website “Educational Portal www.e-portal.ae” in 2010, and preparing and presenting workshops in making educational aids for primary teachers in Dubai schools and the last lecture was at the Second Education Conference in Dubai in 2019
Creating and preparing educational aids is my passion, and I am very happy to see my products in the hands of children. My goal when I am creating and designing my products is to create attractive, high-quality, cost-effective, educational resources that are easy to equip and assemble by a teacher. If I help a teacher in saving her time and attract her students to the lesson, I will succeed
You will notice that most of my educational resources are flashcards, paper games and electronic educational games because I believe that a child learns through play, and I know how important for a child to practice educational activities and work independently in the educational corner in order to acquire and build different skills. What you will not see frequently on my site is the worksheets, because I am not a fan of the worksheets, however I provided worksheets in various academic subjects, and since I love childhood and my specialty revolves around this stage, most of the resources in the educational portal for pre-school children, kindergarten and primary stage
