Ibrahim Salman

Ibrahim is a trustworthy teacher. First, his patience inspires deep-seated trust. I know because with my hearing impairment, my busy schedule which leaves less time for studying Arabic than I would like and my dogs who interrupt lessons more than they should, I have witnessed his patience. Ibrahim's expertise also reassures me that I am in the best of hands. He has the ability to gauge my preparation and comprehension on the spot such that our lessons are always properly paced. I never feel bored or overly pressured. Finally, Ibrahim is also steady and reliable; he has never canceled a lesson or failed to show up. This all means that when I am with Ibrahim, I am laser focused on learning Arabic and confident of the progress that I am making. I highly recommend Ibrahim as an Arabic teacher.

Ustadh Ibrahim Salman is an excellent teacher! He provides both a great mix of listening, speaking and writing learning activities and a very practical, supportive learning environment. As a student, you feel pushed to learn and try out new competencies, and you are supported in doing so and gain valuable feedback that helps you to improve. He is very clear and concise. Doesn’t waste your time and always lectures with the intent to help you understand the material. He helped me understand many key concepts of the Arabic language, and he is patient and eager to help. I am especially excited about the current topics of the lessons, which nevertheless contain in-depth grammar of the Arabic language with the traditional Arabic terms and not with European terms. Recommending him is a no-brainer.

Good feedback today for homework. Looking forward to the next lesson.

After 34 Egyptian Arabic lessons with Mr. Ibrahim, I can confidently say he is an excellent language tutor. I tried a number of arabic tutors prior, with varying results. Ibrahim stands out. He is very good at gauging your level and progress and modifying the lesson plans to move more quickly or slowly depending on your unique needs. He also ensures you get a healthy amount of speaking time, so you have ample opportunity to practice during lessons. While daunting at first, he eases you into using the language so it feels very natural, and commensurate with your level. Would highly recommend.

Ibrahim is a truly wonderful teacher!!! I really enjoy him and recommend him to anyone who wants to learn Arabic. His teaching style is perfect. He doesn't speed up or slow down, and I absorb the material quickly under his guidance. I learn very quickly with him. Thank you, Professor Ibrahim! إبراهيم أستاذ رائع جدًا!!! بجد بحبه وبوصي بيه لأي حد عايز يتعلم عربي. التمشية بتاعته مظبوطة أوي، مش بيسرع ولا بيبطّأ، والحاجة بتتحط في دماغي بسرعة تحت إشرافه. بتعلم بسرعة كبيرة معاه، شكرًا يا أستاذ إبراهيم!

Ibrahim is very patient with me and explains the material very well.
