About Me
italki teacher since Nov 22, 2016
Marhaba! I studied computer science at Damascus university. Since my graduation in 2012 I worked as a software developer until I found iTalki where I found my passion. I love reading (poetry in particular), sports (not watching though), calligraphy, and I have a limited experience with playing Oud (an amazing oriental musical instrument). Also I have some successful attempts with crochet and sewing clothes. In short I'm interested in everything artistic and beautiful!

Alaa is a wonderful teacher! Over forty lessons later, meeting with him is still one of the best parts of my week. Alaa is patient and knowledgeable.

I started Arabic from zero and didn't know a single word. Now, after few lessons with Alaa, I am able to have a basic conversation. He is a very good teacher, he keeps the lessons easy to follow and engaging and he makes Arabic language a little less intimidating.

I've now completed 100 Lessons with Alaa. It has been an excellent experience- we've also met on my recent visit to Istanbul. My language acquisition has jumped massively and I feel I can now have a heated discussion in Arabic...yay! I even find myself thinking in Arabic at times. Alaa is really well read on a wide range of topics and we have discussed topics from the ancient arabic texts and fables, all the way to modern culture, medicine, engineering, current affairs, news articles, environmental issues, etc. He is usually encouraging of me expressing an opinion, which I feel pushes me to be more expressive. Studying English and Turkish himself, it has been interesting at times to discuss how the different languages work and we often discuss how jokes work in the different languages. I would definitely recommend him, particularly if you've reached an intermediate level and you're not sure where to go from here.
