Hi there! I’m Shahd, an English teacher with a TESOL certification from Arizona State University. As a native Arabic speaker, I’ve been exactly where you are. I know the struggle of feeling "stuck" when it’s time to speak.
I’m a big fan of movies and series (which are great for learning!), and I believe that the best way to master a language is to make it part of your real life. I help students bridge the gap between "studying" English and actually "living" it.
To ensure high-intensity, personalized feedback, I keep my student circle small and focus on dedicated, goal-oriented learners. If you’re ready to start speaking, send me a message, I’d love to guide you!Me as a Teacher
My approach is built on the belief that language is a tool for connection, not just a subject to study. Using the methodology from my ASU training, I focus on moving away from repetitive drills toward active, real-world communication.
I have experience working with a wide range of learners: building strong foundations for beginners, making English engaging for children, and helping adults gain the confidence they need for work, university, or moving abroad. I also provide targeted strategies for those preparing for exams. Every lesson is tailored to your specific goals because no two paths are the same. I am patient and encouraging, my focus is always on getting you to speak from day one :) My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are all about real interaction. We skip the repetitive grammar drills you already know and focus on active speaking from day one.
What you can expect:
Tailored Sessions: Every lesson is built around your specific needs (Work, University, or Daily Life).
Real-World Focus: We use practical scenarios to bridge the gap to natural fluency.
Stress-Free Environment: A comfortable space to make mistakes, learn, and grow.
This is your "minimum effort, maximum benefit" path to English. Whether you are building your basics or preparing for an exam, we will make English feel natural together.My teaching material
