Hey there! Thank you for your interest in learning more about me. Iām thrilled to be part of your learning journey! One of my favorite things to do is to hang out with friends and talk. Think of me as your online friend who you can practice conversation with. I enjoy jokes and LOVE to laugh, so lessons with me are very relaxed and you won't notice the time passing. I enjoy talking about movies, music, books, food, history, and cultures. HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON!

Me as a Teacher
It has always been a priority of mine that the people I interact with are comfortable and relaxed. Our lessons will be casual and FUN. When you enjoy a lesson, you can be sure that the information will be retained better.
With a background in mental health, I am always down to speaking to people. I just love it.
I will always be interested in talking to you no matter what your level is! Sharing stories and experiences will not only develop your English skills but will also broaden both of our horizons.
With English, I like to pay special attention to pronunciation, so you will be learning NEW WORDS and mastering the American way of pronouncing them.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are fun but efficient. When you try speaking a language you are learning, it might be intimidating and maybe even a little uncomfortable for you. But with the right techniques, I will make sure that you push yourself outside of that comfort zone and grow to really enjoy conversing. You can think of our lessons as an opportunity for you to experiment: make mistakes, try new words, and sharpen up your pronunciation skills. Trust me, after each lesson, you will feel that sense of achievement, joy, and excitement for more classes. You will be hungry and pumped for more conversations. I use songs, movies, and other media to teach you words and to immerse you in the language.
I look forward to my lessons with Ali each time! As a beginner my vocab and confidence has improved enormously in just a couple of weeks. Ali is always prepared and adapts the lesson to my needs and interests. He uses his own structured materials that strike an excellent balance to build vocab in the context of conversations, clearly explain the structure of the language and add in cultural context. Ali is very patient when I do make mistakes, taking the time to ensure I've understood and adapt if needed. He is a great conversationalist, very knowledgeable about all things Lebanese and the wider region. Classes fly by with Ali, I look forward to learning more and highly recommend!

I love my lessons with Ali.
Even in a horrible time, it makes my day brighter and warmer. Ali is the best teacher in the whole world because my learning isnāt stressful, itās always very relaxing and comfortable.
He is a sincere, patient and unforgettable (!!!) teacher who is ready to help you, using different methods: information sheets to improve your pronunciation, pictures-descriptions, lots of video and audio content, and speaking! THIS IS MY FAVORITE FORMAT because I feel like my pronunciation (what is Aliās specialty) is getting better step by step. Yeaaah it works!
Even if sometimes I'm nervous, worried, when I can't find the right words to describe something, Ali always supports me. Iām not afraid to be silent when I need it.
Ali is very empathic. He senses your mood and adapts the lesson. His method is really effective. So today we listened to music/songs and discussed it. And I enjoyed learning a lot of new useful words and phrases.
It was so breathtaking. Magic.

A challenging and fun lesson. Ali is always encouraging and helped me figure out phrases that I thought I wouldn't be able to come up with in conversation.
