Hello, My name's Issam, I am a native Arabic speaker from Morocco, with a great sense of humor and patience to help you learn the Arabic Modern Standard or the Arabic Maghrebi. I’m fluent in English, also I have an upper-intermediate level French. So I understand all the challenges that come with learning a new language. I have a bachelors degree in law from University Cady Ayyad and my main passions are travel, culture and languages, which is why I love teaching Arabic. I am very excited to hear about other cultures and countries, and to share Arabic with you. So let’s make learning fun, meaningful, and full of cultural flavor - together

Amazing! I am learning so much. I honestly did not know it would be possible to have learned so much already. Fantastic teaching!

My trial lesson with Issam was exellent. He hit the right balance for me. The lesson was appropriate for my learning level, easy to follow but just challenging enough. He was able to answer questions seamlessly without disrupting the flow of the lesson. The balance of speaking practice and listening was just right.

Best teacher for Darija and Arabic! Issam always explains things in a way that is easy for me to understand and doesn’t make me feel bad if I make a mistake. He is very patient and knowledgeable. I would recommend him for anybody that wants to learn.

The best of the best. Such a smart guy and a master at teaching and keeping you engaged. I have a hard time learning and concentrating but somehow he manages to keep me focused on the material. I love taking my Darija classes with Issam. Thank you Issam.
