As a child of missionaries, Solbin surrounded herself with ministry from a young age, engaging in every opportunity to teach. Loving the joy of watching kids grow, she leaped across the globe after graduation to pursue education in the UK. It was during those university years that her passion truly evolved.

“Looking back, the assembly times and morning devotions were especially powerful to me. At the time, I did not fully understand the depth of the lyrics we were singing or the love behind the prayers our teachers prayed over us daily (...). But as I’ve grown older and drawn nearer to God, I keep realizing how much those moments shaped me. (...) I’m often surprised and deeply thankful for the things I once proclaimed with my own mouth and when I said “amen” to them without fully realizing their significance back then.”

Now standing on the other side of the classroom as an MYP Maths, Individuals & Societies, and former IBDP Business teacher, Solbin delivers academic excellence through a biblical perspective, knowing that this labor shapes both the mind and the heart. “The most rewarding part of my week is watching students during chapel. Many students, and I were the same (...), we could sometimes sit there thinking, ‘It’s just another time of singing and listening to someone speak.’ But now, looking back, I know how meaningful those moments really are. Something will seep in and bear fruit in God’s timing. Watching students while knowing that so deeply is very rewarding to me.”
