Hello, my name is Nasra Abubakar a translator at Kansas City International Academy (KCIA), where I play a vital role in supporting students’ academic and personal growth. With a deep passion for education and a strong commitment to helping students succeed, I work closely with teachers and staff to create a nurturing and inclusive learning environment. With several years of experience in educational settings, I have developed a keen understanding of the unique needs of diverse student populations. My approach is centered on building strong relationships with students, understanding their individual challenges, and providing the personalized support they need to excel. Whether assisting with classroom activities, providing one-on-one guidance, or facilitating small group instruction, I am committed to helping each student reach their full potential. Beyond my work in the classroom, I am known for my ability to connect with families and the broader Kansas City community. I understand the importance of fostering strong partnerships between school and home to ensure that students receive consistent support in all areas of their lives. I am fluent in English, Swahili, Somali, and Oromo, which enhances my ability to connect with and support a diverse student body here at KCIA. My commitment to education, coupled with her multilingual skills and community involvement, makes me honored to be apart the KCIA community!
