I am an Arabic native speaker from Lebanon with a Fort Worth ISD teaching experience. I speak, read, and write Arabic with native fluency. I have taught the beginning Arabic course in TCU (Texas Christian University). I have a B.A. in Arabic literature from the Lebanese university in Beirut. I have extensive experience in translation and have translated Arabic documents into English for Bell Helicopter among other organizations.

My teaching method is based on culturally specific ways of communication and knowledge for today's global marketplace. I can help with official national and international proficiency tests. I keep the student visually engaged and verbally interactive in a fun and relaxed learning environment. I teach several Arabic dialects, including those of Lebanon, Egypt, UAE, and Saudi Arabia, and emphasize spoken Arabic in class.

I look forward to hearing from you and working with you.
