Why One-to-One Arabic Tuition With Me
One-to-One Arabic Tuition
Why Me?
I have been teaching Arabic to non-native speakers for 15 years.
I have worked with many students, students who thought Arabic was impossible to learn and students who had almost stopped learning Arabic until they met me and I helped them overcome that barrier. I am confident that I can turn any student into a confident Arabic speaker in 6 months.
I am the first to develop a proven system for learning Levantine (Syrian/Lebanese Arabic).
In 2005, when most Arabic teachers taught Classical Arabic (Modern Standard Arabic) and Levantine Arabic was not taught due to a lack of resources and the desire to learn only Classical Arabic, I developed a comprehension method for learning Syriac. Lebanese Arabic and wrote his first book Learn to Speak Arabic.
I have written 5 books on learning Arabic. The latest book available on Amazon is Colloquial Levantine Arabic.
I have a bachelor’s degree in Arabic from Damascus University and a Master’s degree in translation.
Learn Arabic Online Or Face to Face
When learning Arabic online via Skype or Zoom or face to face with me, I will provide you with a self-study plan and Arabic language materials, audio lessons, articles to read, practice exercises, and Arabic TV programs to watch.
You Won’t Learn Arabic By Memorizing Vocabulary Or Grammar Rules.
I don’t follow the traditional teaching method that focuses on complex grammar and passive learning where the student tunes in and learns passively without interaction with the teacher.
My lessons will focus on 70% of your actual speaking and interacting with me and 30% on active reading and grammar learning through stories and contexts.
Quality Over Quantity
It’s not about the number of lessons you have to take to achieve fluency, but the quality of your Arabic lessons. Your Arabic lessons will be well organized and tailored to your goals. When you work with me, you will notice that one hour of teaching equals 3 hours with other teachers. I discovered and developed the best methods and techniques to become fluent in Arabic in a short time.
