Abdeen

My conversations with Abdeen are always a highlight of my week. He is an absolute joy to study with! I appreciate his relaxed, flexible, and patient teaching style, which allows me to express myself without fear of making mistakes. I know he will kindly correct them! Besides being a dedicated and caring teacher, Abdeen is also a wonderful person: warm-hearted, open-minded, and humorous. Like every other time, today's conversation left me with a big smile and gratitude for all we discussed and everything I learned—new vocabulary, grammar distinctions, and fascinating insights about him or Egypt that I didn't know before. I feel so fortunate to have him as my teacher and friend. عبدهين بيخلّي تعلّم العربي ممتع جدًا!

The learning material is a dream come true! Abdeen writes the word or sentences in english, arabic and arabic transliteration in a google sheets document. After the lesson he records the new words. The document is super structured. I'm very impressed as I've never seen an arabic lesson plan this structured before. Abdeen is open to different methods and changements. I like that doesn't ask to private questions. For this reason the atmosphere is professional but also friendly and fun. Furthermore he is punctual and reliable. Honestly the best teacher I've taken on Italki and I don't have anything negative to say.

Third session with Abdeen and I enjoyed it very much. We had a conversation and he taught me the words and phrases that I don't know based on the topic, and also touched on some grammar points. Highly recommend!

Abdeen has been an awesome Egyptian Arabic teacher! As a teacher, he adapts the lessons to my needs and is always very flexible. I've made several trips to Cairo and have hired him as a tour guide. We went horseback riding around the pyramids and it was great to have him with me to avoid the scams of the sellers in the area. We also went to restaurants and museums together. I also hired him for immersive lessons throughout Cairo where he helped me converse with the locals and name the things around me. It's been a great and fun way to build more confidence with Arabic while exploring the city or just running errands.

Abdeen creates a great learning environment to study Arabic. I feel comfortable making mistakes and he takes time explain grammar and meanings of words. It is also useful that he records all new vocab and phrases in a google sheet which I can use to study outside of our sessions.

My second class with Abdeen was really good. He made sure to personalize the lesson to my level and encouraged me to talk and ask questions.
