Amin holds a master’s degree in Elementary Education and Early Childhood from Virginia Commonwealth University, USA, 2012. Currently, she is pursuing a Doctorate in Educational Leadership (EdD) at Johns Hopkins University in the United States of America. Her thesis topic focuses on the significance of collaboration between parents and schools and its influence on student achievement.

Amin believes that education is an effective tool for achieving personal growth and societal cohesion, which is reflected in her constant eagerness to cooperate with individuals who have innovative thinking, the ability to connect diverse ideas, possess an orientation towards the future, and a passion for the promotion of equal opportunities in education.
