Saima is revolutionizing the education system. She is a trailblazer – she has converted her dreams, combined with her natural inquisitive nature, into two very distinct organizations – all from an idea. “Learning is a life-long endeavour. No student has the same strengths, shortcomings, confidences, or fears. However, the skills and opportunities acquired by students at various transitional points in their education help to increase an intellectual curiosity and excitement about learning.”

As the CEO and Principal of iLearn DL, a ministry approved high school - Saima is transforming the traditional school model into a virtual experience. “iLearn DL goes beyond the brick and mortar concept of learning. It expands educational opportunities and overcomes geographic and demographic restrictions. So for any student who is seeking high school educational opportunities, whether they are an athlete travelling internationally or an adult who never obtained their High School diploma, iLearn is the perfect solution. Learning is flexible and customized in ways
relevant to today’s world and utilizes modern technology.”

For the past eight years, Saima has also founded and directed Higher Grade Learning Centre – a premier tutoring services company in the Lower Mainland. Higher Grade Learning Centre is focused on providing personalized education to students who need academic support and want to excel. “We bring together a vast number of high-impact, custom education services to ensure success.” Along with designing a learning plan that best reflects the specific needs of their student, educational experts take the time to collaborate with parents and schools. They empower students and help them to discover the benefits of self-initiated lifelong learning."

Paramount to her educational philosophy, for both organizations and as an individual, Saima is always striving for continuous excellence and integrity. “I have a dream to change how learning is accomplished worldwide – iLearn DL and HGLC are the stepping stones to fast forward educational systems.”
