Abdelrahman A.

Ustad Abdurrahman is a patient teacher and very understanding of my personal situation as a mature student with many other commitments. His knowledge of the Arabic language and its various sciences is to a scholarly level, beyond many of the other teachers you may find online. However, he simplifies the material to suit your personal learning needs. He also demonstrates immense passion for the all the sciences of classical Arabic including Nahw, Sarf and Balagah etc.

There are many arabic teachers available to teach but very few know how to teach. I have had a very long journey with my arabic language where i have took lot of gaps due to inconsistencies and lack of motivation from my side. Most teachers i previously had did not have the passion to teach and their teaching method was hard to learn. After a long search for a new teacher alhamdulillah i found brother abdurrahman. His schedule was busy teaching others students therefore it did not match my availability. However after taking trial lesson with him and few lessons in the beginning i was convinced this is the perfect teacher i was looking for therefore i have made changes to my schedule. Brother Abdurrahman his easy teaching style, passion, attention to detail has made the lesson easy to learn and i always look forward towards my lessons with him. I hope to inshaa Allah complete all my bayna yadak levels and beyond. Thank you brother for teaching me. May Allah reward you.

The disappointing thing with this teacher was his behaviour and communication - at times it was quite evidently poor and disrespectful towards me. I also double-checked this with some other top Arabic tutors, who agreed that his tone and behaviour were not appropriate at all. When I pointed this out to him, he didn’t apologise or acknowledge it, which was disappointing. While he initially offered a discount for the classes, which was nice and things started well, that doesn’t excuse the subsequent disrespectful communication - especially once it had been highlighted to him. He could improve by communicating more politely and by being willing to apologise when something comes across in the wrong way. That shows humility and good character. I couldn’t continue classes because of this. The teaching itself was okay, though the pace could be improved. For me, manners and respectful communication are more important than teaching alone.

Great lesson as usual! Abdulrahman is a fantastic teacher. He took me from knowing nothing about Arabic grammar to being able to sit a university-level exam in Arabic grammar with native speakers, and that's without any hard work from my side! I just turned up for the lessons and put my trust in him to guide me in the best way possible. Highly recommended!

Just completed Book 1B today. We have covered all areas of the Al Arabiya Bayna Yadayk first book in the past few months due to the amazing teaching ability of ustadh Abdulrahman. Looking forward to what’s next!

Great
