The Arabic language runs in my veins. I was born and raised with it and have been teaching it for three decades, benefiting thousands of students around the globe.
I have studied Arabic not just at school but also in the classical way since the age of 6. I was immersed in Arabic throughout my entire schooling until I left Morocco at the beginning of my late teenage years.
I still remember when my Arabic teacher would ask me to prepare a topic from Arabic literature and present it to the class. I was 12 years old at the time. This experience and others like it ignited my love for Arabic and sharing knowledge with others, allowing me to become a successful Arabic speaker, teacher, and author.
I am deeply grateful that Standard Arabic (فصحى) was the primary language used to teach all subjects at school, except for French. This was a significant change from the year before I started school when French was the primary language of instruction.
I have developed my teaching style over the years, solidified through my academic achievements (MA in English, pathway TEFL). During my MA studies, I explored past and present approaches and methodologies used to teach English, which have since profoundly influenced how I teach Arabic to my students.
I have taught many books available in the mainstream market, and for the last fifteen years, I have been teaching my books, which can be found on Amazon.
Additionally, for advanced students and teachers aiming to master Arabic grammar, I teach my great-great-grandfather's book, "I'rabul Qur'an" (“إعراب القرآن”).
In this work, my great-great-grandfather, Allama Abu Zayd Abdul Rahman Al Jishtimi, meticulously explains the grammatical intricacies of Al Qur'an Al Karim.

If you start learning with me, there is one thing I can promise, If you follow my instructions, and allow me to hold you accountable, I will make you love this beautiful language of Arabic and acquire it without wasting your time and effort.
Just so you know, my diary is very busy, and I have only a few slots available. Please get in touch as quickly as possible to book your session or arrange a course tailored to your needs.
I look forward to starting this amazing journey with you.
