InterestsBusiness & FinanceTravelHistory
I am Ahmed, an engineer from Baghdad Iraq, I have lived and worked in various countries, interacting with diverse individuals in both academic and professional settings. I have a talent for teaching languages and building strong relationships with people from different cultures, thanks to my background as a language instructor and export sales representative. I am a native speaker of Iraqi, MSA, and Libyan, and proficient in English and Turkish.
Me as a Teacher
I am a skilled Arabic language teacher with extensive experience in both learning and teaching languages. My language learning background includes English, Turkish, and various Arabic dialects such as Libyan and Syrian, and mostly I learned them on my own. As a result, I have a deep understanding of the struggles language learners face and have developed effective teaching techniques to help them overcome these challenges. I am proficient in teaching Arabic MSA, Iraqi, Libyan, and Syrian dialects, and I customize my teaching approach to meet the unique needs of each student.
My lessons & teaching style
As an educator, I believe that there is no single teaching method that can cater to the diverse learning styles and needs of all students. Therefore, I prioritize having an initial consultation with each student to collaboratively develop a tailored study plan that suits their individual requirements.
To facilitate effective learning, I incorporate a wide range of teaching tools and techniques that enable students to comprehend and retain information in an engaging manner. Furthermore, I place particular emphasis on providing conversational practice classes as it enhances a student's confidence in applying their newly acquired knowledge.

It has already been several months since I started taking lessons with Ahmed; and this is a good sign of the quality of the courses! I had to prepare for a long stay in Iraq: thanks to him, I was quickly able to familiarise myself with the Iraqi dialect, through concrete dialogues/readings on a variety of themes and in a range of registers (official presentations, classical and historical texts, everyday discussions, street language). It was so effective that I can now communicate in Arabic in my everyday life; I continue to improve with him as I discover new aspects of the Iraqi language and culture every day. Ahmed has, of course, an excellent knowledge of the Iraqi dialect, but also of other Arabic dialects, particularly Syrian, which makes it possible to draw many parallels. And he even speaks Turkish! I have recommended him around me, as these classes are an excellent way of learning Arabic, despite our personal time constraints. And here I recommend him more widely!

Arabic lessons with Ahmed have helped me have more fun and meaningful conversations with my Iraqi friends—I especially enjoy the added cultural insights alongside language learning. I am beginning to feel more comfortable using idioms and asking questions. I appreciate that he adapts his lessons to accommodate my goals; his teaching style is structured, personable, and engaging.

I am so glad I have Ahmed as a tutor ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّٰهِ
Always Ahmed is friendly, patient and kind. My arabic learning is accelerating because of my lessons with Ahmed. He creates a fun and inviting environment for me to learn that meets my needs.
In this lesson, Ahmed helped me nail down the grammar and pronunciation of verb conjugates and object pronouns.
When I studied this concept on my own, I was so confused. I feel a great sense of gratitude for Ahmed's help. شكرا

It has only been a few lessons so far but Ahmed is a great teacher, zero judgement and encourages students to continue trying. He also provides numerous examples and resources and keeps us engaged with active recalling.
