Teaching Style

I prefer learning through doing and am open to other methods too. I have experience with tutoring students learning English as a second language and students of Arabic. With both, I like to focus on what the student wishes to learn. I believe this creates a strong incentive to use and improve with the language.

My Hobbies

Learning Arabic, Judo, fantasy baseball, listening to podcasts.

Other Comments

Having learned Arabic as a second language, I understand what it is like to study and practice Arabic. This puts me in a position to effectively teach students of Arabic. I am most capable with speaking in dialect and reading in Modern Standard Arabic (especially media Arabic).
