Learning Arabic can certainly be a challenging feat, but take it from me when I tell you that learning this beautiful language is the most rewarding journey I've ever embarked on. If you're curious about what the Arabic speaking world has to offer, you want to learn about a specific country, or if you just want to try something new, don't hesitate to start your very own Arabic learning Journey.

I am a native English Speaker and have studied Arabic for roughly 8 years. I have completed two different intensive language programs, Middlebury and Qasid, and I have obtained my Master's degree in Arabic for Professional Purposes from the University of Michigan. I have two years of experience teaching college level students at the introductory and intermediate levels.

I have spent countless hours with native speakers and learners much like myself learning the ins and outs of Arabic. I have studied the extraordinary grammatical structures of Modern Standard Arabic as well as the beauty of the spoken varieties of the language.

I was fortunate enough to study abroad in Amman, Jordan and therefore I have a strong understanding of Jordanian culture and way of life. That being said, however, I have also immersed myself in cultures of peoples from across the Arabic speaking world.

I have a strong desire to pass on all that I have gained from this language learning journey of mine and instill the same passion that I have for Arabic into the next generation of learners.
