"Hello,
I'm a native speaker of Arabic, educated in Yemen for nine years, where I learned Modern Standard Arabic with grammar as well as Classical. I have 12 years experience tutoring Arabic on this website and independently. I'm excited to get to know you and help on your journey of learning!
I don't believe in lecturing, but rather foster an active learning environment. I incorporate various methods and resources into the lesson, such as games (most recently an Arabic jeopardy board I made!), visuals, music, TV learning tools, creating dialogues that mirror as close to real-life situations as possible, field trips, and others. Rather than memorizing, you will remember through context-based spaced repetition.
I have taught all levels of Arabic from beginner to advanced and all major dialects with the exception of Algerian/Tunesian/Morrocan dialects. Some of my students have gone on to be hired by government agencies as translators and others have completed their PhDs in field where Arabic is essential. Others have been able to use their Arabic in their travel and have had great success. I enjoy what I do and seeing the growth and my student's stories!
Spanish-speaking students: Si hablas espanol, puedo hablar en espanol tambien aunque no sea perfectamente. Hay similitudes entre el arabe y el espanol que me encantaria compartir contigo.
French-speaking students: Je parle un peu français. Ce n'est pas parfait, mais je peux comprendre une conversation simple et vous montrer les similitudes entre l'arabe et le français." less...
