(2 reviews)

Personal Description:

My name is Sohir and I am British/ Egyptian, I have lived in the UK for over 20 years.
My passion for the Arabic language has led me to change my scientific career and pursue a career as an Arabic language Tutor for non- Native Speakers.
I have a Bachelor’s degree and a Master’s degree in Biochemistry from Egypt.

Teaching Experience:

I have a wide experience of teaching students of all levels and ages beginning with primary school students when I was in charge of running Arabic clubs. During the past three years I have developed excellent knowledge of providing customized tutoring services to students at GCSE, A level and university- age. I am also happy to teach adults Arabic as a second language.

Teaching Approach:

I teach Modern Standard Arabic based on the "Mastering Arabic" Series which is one of the most famous books used in different universities and institutions. This series starts at beginners to intermediate level students with little or no previous knowledge of the language and who want to understand, read, write and speak Arabic confidently, and then moves on to a more advanced level of studying with some fascinating cultural insights.

If you are already familiar with the principals of Modern Standard Arabic and want to learn the Egyptian Dialect of Spoken Arabic which is the most frequently studied and most widely understood in the Arab world, I can certainly do that based on the “Kallimni Arabi (colloquial Egyptian)” series of books.

I tend to use different learning materials and a variety of technique to make my lessons interesting and engaging. I customize my teaching approach based on my student’s background, their aims and their needs.

I believe that the enjoyment of these lessons is not only about the reward you get when you learn a new language but also the experience and the understanding that you will acquire when you learn the culture, the customs and the traditions of the Arab world.
