Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Halimah Yusuf-Hassan, a mother of 3. I have a degree in human recourse management from the university of Wollongong in Dubai.
I am very passionate about craft and learning skills.

Growing up, I was the oldest and by default the designated baby sitter in the family 😂 This grew my love for children and their amazing minds! As an adult, I have been able to combine my love for kids and my love for crafts into one and impart the skills in children.
I teach gardening, cooking, baking and crochet for kids ages 5 to 16. With these skills, children learn social and interpersonal skills. The best part is learning these skills is so fun, you don't realise you are learning!!!

Pick up as many skills as you can - there's no such thing as “too skilful”. ONE SKILL AT A TIME.
