Miss Hultman-Green: Dedication is Key to Success


By Moustafa Barakat

Miss Barbara Hultman-Green came to Schutz this year to teach grade one. Miss Barbara has been a teacher for most of her life. She has taught in many places in the Middle East, including Jordan and the United Arab Emirates. She has four children and four grand children whom she loves dearly. Miss Barbara worked in the United States in Chicago where she taught Music and Kindergarten and worked as a Fine Arts Coordinator.
Miss Barbara has been to many historical places in Egypt. She visited Siwa, Cairo, Port Said, Luxor, and Aswan. She loves Egypt because of its weather and the very congenial people and surroundings. “Egypt is a nice place to live in ”, said Miss Barbara. She loves the teachers and kids in Schutz. Miss Barbara enjoys the grade one class, but she would like to have two divisions for it so that the students and the teachers could benefit. She would like to work with another teacher in grade one and plan things for the classes. Her classroom has an assorted range of students. There are different nationalities, such as Canadian, American, Turkish, Greeks, Egyptian, Hungarian, and Korean.
Miss Barbara is a very compassionate teacher. She said, “I like to listen to kids as listening to children is very rewarding for the child and the teacher”. She loves teaching children because of their honesty. She loves how honest the children are in her classrooms, and she values them to the heart. Another main aspect is their innocence.
Miss Barbara is a very experienced teacher who likes to make the world a better place. She will be definitely missed by her students and colleagues as her contract comes to an end this June.
