Muhammad Faisal Siraj
Father, educator and the writer behind Story to Learn's parenting scripts and children's stories.
About Faisal
Faisal is the father of a young son, and much of what he writes is shaped by everyday family moments: bedtime, screens, “five more minutes” and first apologies. He started Story to Learn to make screen time and parenting advice that leave families calmer, not louder.
He is also an educator. He has taught at universities in Pakistan, was a research scholar at The University of Texas at Austin, and has produced more than 8,000 curriculum-based educational videos for students in grades 9 to 11. That experience shapes how Story to Learn works: one clear idea at a time, explained simply, and checked before it goes out.
Before Story to Learn, Faisal spent many years in advertising, animation and video production, writing and directing commercials and educational content. Today he leads a small team of writers, animators and editors who turn real family moments into short reels, stories and animated book trailers.
What he writes
- Parent scripts: word-for-word ways to handle everyday moments, like getting kids to listen without yelling, toddler tantrums and teaching kids to apologize.
- Free printable guides for parents and teachers, from calm parenting to stranger safety.
- Children's stories and scripts for Story to Learn's animated videos and lullabies.
- Book trailers for children's authors through the Story to Learn studio.
How he writes
Every article on Story to Learn is general parenting guidance, not medical advice. Faisal writes from his experience as a parent and an educator, uses AI tools to help research and draft, and checks and edits every piece himself before it is published.
