She entered teaching thinking she only had to learn how to teach. She didn’t expect to learn how to become someone else in the process. Izhan is a trainee teacher stepping into a practicum that demands more than lesson plans and classroom control. Under pressure, she creates a version of herself—Nazha—structured, composed, and capable of surviving every evaluation thrown her way. But survival is not the same as mastery. Guided by Faizal Mazri, tested relentlessly by Syarah Suhaili, and quietly observed by Megat, Izhan begins to grow into the role she once only performed. Yet the line between Izhan and Nazha starts to blur—not into confusion, but into something more unsettling: understanding. Because in the end, the question is not whether she can teach. It’s whether she can remain herself while doing it. Each chapter includes an author’s note with key education terms explained as a glossary.
