Sarah Ashraf Fares

I enjoy my lessons with Sarah so much that I willingly wake up at 5 am every Thursday morning just to take them. I was extremely tired from lack of sleep the night before, but by the end of our lesson, Sarah made me feel super energetic! Her lessons are always so enjoyable and she is full of energy! I always learn so much during lessons and I love that she makes me write out what we've learned in each lesson. This way, the info sticks better. Can't wait for my next lessons with Sarah!

I had a great first lesson with Sarah and am excited to continue my journey to learn egyptian arabic dialect in future lessons. I'm confident we were able to tailor a plan that fits my goals and I feel comfortable and encouraged to learn with Sarah. Definitely recommend her.

Sarah is a great teacher. She helps me to understand the differences between Egyptian and American culture while teaching the language. She has taught me the patterns of verbs and nouns so that I can recognize them when I see them and know the roots of those words and how to understand them better. She is patient and kind and asks me many questions about myself. She is willing to speak to me in Arabic even when I stumble quite a lot, which I appreciate since it challenges me so much. She also has great material to review at home and that we go over for the next lesson time and it helps reinforce what I am learning. She is a great conversationalist and I'm so glad I have her as a teacher.

Sarah is the best! She is truly amazing and special. Excellent and professional teacher. With a lot of patience and with a big smile. Fun learning from her. I am very happy that I got to know an amazing person like her. I am happy for the privilege to study with Sarah and I feel lucky to have a teacher like her. Thank you for everything

Sarah helped me to understand the concept of "if" in Egyptian Arabic. I also was able to tell her what the book I am reading is about and that was very helpful as it is all new words and concepts I am learning. She also taught me the uses of the verb "to become" which comes up a lot in Egyptian Arabic. I feel more confident now in using these.

Sarah taught me how to say words related to sewing and doing arts and crafts. She also taught me the feminine uses of the colors in Arabic. She is encouraging me to read in Arabic and showed me some of the rules for 4 letter words and how to stress the words for the sake of pronunciation. I feel more confident that I will continue to improve in this aspect.
