About The Speaker:
Boushra and Line Dalile are 15 and 13 years old home-schooled students. They were born in Syria and have lived in the UAE since 2005. They attended regular schooling until the age of 13 and 11 when they decided to become homeschooled. Time-flexibility, the ability to achieve faster, and being able to teach themselves the way they want to be taught are ones of many reasons for this very serious decision. Their love of learning expanded to learning multiple languages, for example: Line speaks Arabic, English, Chinese and German while Boushra speaks Arabic, English, Italian and French.They are also multi-sport girls who like to ski, swim and have remarkable achievements in their favorite sport, Golf. When Line was at the age of 12, she published her first poetry e-book. With the help of her sister, Boushra, they were able to organize a golf e-book, it's already published and more are coming soon.
About TEDx:
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
This event was held in Ajman, UAE.
