What's the Story of SimSim?

Hi, my name is Sima, but kids call me SimSim.

 

I'm the founder of Simsim Art Lab. My journey with art and working with children has been long, but I’m excited to share it with you.

 

Ever since I was a child, I’ve always loved art. Although I initially studied geography at university, I soon realized it wasn’t my true passion. I decided to follow my heart, which led me to graphic design and later fashion design. However, something still didn’t feel right. I always felt the most joy when I was around children. They fill me with love, happiness, and inspiration.

 

My first job was at a daycare as an art teacher when I was 20 years old, and since then, I've had the privilege of working for eight wonderful years at 3SQUARES, a place that allowed my creativity to grow and sparkle. Now, I’m continuing my journey by studying Early Childhood Education in Canada, where I combine my love for art with my passion for helping children. I believe that we can all learn from children, especially their pure and honest way of seeing the world.

 

At Simsim Art Lab, I don't just want to teach art. I aim to help children grow their creativity, nurture their happiness, and remind them of the importance of kindness and love. In every class, I work closely with them, sharing not only the beauty of art but the value of empathy, care, and positivity. I love my job, and I truly believe in what I do.

I believe that together, with the children’s help, we can make the world a better place for them.
