Emilie Carrey

Teacher

Hello all! My name is Emilie Carrey and I am from Ontario, Canada. My small city named Sudbury is located in Northern Ontario, about 4 hours north of Toronto. It is a French-Canadian community surrounded by over 300 lakes! I love travelling and have spent the past few years travelling all over Canada. Now, I am thrilled to begin exploring Bangladesh. I have been an arts educator across Canada through non-profit organizations for over 6 years and I enjoyed working with youth so much that I became a teacher. I hold a diploma in Special Events Management from George Brown College in 2017 and graduated Honours Cum Laude from my Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Education in 2019-2021 from Laurentian University. I believe that everyone is capable of success and strive to find the best out of the people that I work with.  I love to spend time with my nieces and nephews, reading, exploring the outdoors and learning new languages.

Samia Sarwar

Teacher (Canadian Certified )

Greetings CISB family! My name is Samia and I come from a land of ice capped mountains and frozen rivers. I am Bangladeshi by birth but grew up in the metropolis of Toronto. There, I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Toronto. I spent the last years of my university life and first few years of my working life traveling, studying and working in various parts of Asia. The last 6 years, my husband and I settled in the home of the Canadian Rockies in Alberta where I completed my BEd after degree. We also had our beautiful daughter, Asiya, here in Edmonton. As my husband and I are both wrapping up our educational experiences here in Edmonton, my little family and I are now ready for a new adventure in my motherland of Bangladesh. I eagerly look forward to meeting and working closely with all of you very soon!
