About me

Miss Rafika

Assistant Teacher

Hello, I'm Rafika, and I’m from Algeria, Africa. From a young age, I was inspired by my teachers, often emulating them and pretending to teach at home. Their influence sparked my desire to become a teacher, a passion I carried into my career. In Africa, I had the privilege of teaching elementary and high school students for 4 years.

I joined Keystone Montessori School in 2024 and cherish every moment spent with the children in the Sandpiper classroom. I am currently learning the Montessori way and continuing my education to become a better teacher for the children I care for. There’s no greater joy than nurturing the love of learning in future generations, and I am honored to be a part of their educational journey.
