Hi! My name is Mrs. Asim, and I am excited to be your child's 3rd grade teacher! This is my 9th year at Jonas Salk. I love 3rd grade and all of the fun we get to have!

I have been teaching a total of 19 years and absolutely love it! I earned my Bachelor's degree from University of California, Los Angeles.  I also hold a Master's degree in Education with an emphasis in curriculum and instruction.

I grew up in sunny California, and I love to go home and visit often.  I have two teenage children.  My daughter, Niaa, is curreently a senior, and my son, Tariq, is a sophomore.  I am married to my best friend, and when I am not busy with grading papers and planning engaging lessons, we love to travel and explore new places. 

 I think it is very important to work together as a classroom family.  We will be spending a lot of time together so it is important to treat each other with respect, kindness, and compassion.  It is my job as your child's teacher to help them grow as a learner and as a person of good character.

I can't wait to meet you and your family at our Sneak Peek/Ice Cream Social on Tuesday, August 15 @ 2pm!  I look forward to a wonderful 2017-2018 school year!
