Specialized in Modern Standard & Egyptian Arabic with 14+ years’ experience, I hold certifications from AUC and Cairo University (plus a Master’s in progress!). My Udemy course helps learners master reading/writing, but I thrive most in connecting cultures through language—whether you’re studying for work, travel, or Quranic Arabic. Let’s make learning vibrant with real-world practice!
Me as a Teacher
With 14+ years of teaching Arabic to students worldwide, I specialize in tailored lessons for conversation, politics, Islam, and literature. I use interactive methods—videos, games, and multimedia—to strengthen speaking, listening, reading, and writing.
Holding two diplomas from Cairo University and an AUC certification, I’m currently pursuing a Master’s in Teaching Arabic as a Foreign Language. I’ve also developed my own Arabic course for non-native speakers. I created a course on https://www.udemy.com/course/lets-read-and-write-arabic/learn/lecture/17056620#overview

I've been working with Sara for almost a year! I really appreciate her for her knowledge, teaching style, charisma, and skill. I started working with her before I went to Egypt last April and was able to learn enough to feel safe taking Ubers by myself, and to shop and haggle at the market. I had the best of times practicing what I learned in Egypt and my weekly lessons with Sara were truly instrumental. I especially appreciate her patience, encouragement, and flexibility. I highly recommend her!

I want to share how exceptional my experience has been learning with Sara. she has already helped unlock aspects of Arabic that I struggled with for a a long time. Her teaching style is patient, engaging, and incredibly encouraging, which makes the learning process both enjoyable and productive.
Sara brings a rare combination of enthusiasm and clarity to every session. She takes the time to explain concepts in a way that truly sticks, and she creates an environment where it feels comfortable to ask questions, make mistakes, and grow.
I feel motivated after each lesson. For the first time in a long time, I feel real progress in my Arabic, and that is a direct result of Sara’s dedication and ability as a teacher.
May Allah continue to guide, empower, and protect Sara. She is a tremendous asset to her students. Anyone interested in learning Arabic—whether for Islamic studies or simply an appreciation of the language—would benefit greatly from learning with someone of her caliber.

Sarah is a great teacher! I am very grateful for her help in getting me to pass the UN Arabic proficiency test. I've been taking lessons with her for years now and we continue to have fun, interesting lessons and conversations.
