Nada

I have been taking lessons with Nada for almost a year now and I wanted to write a bit of a longer review for her. I really enjoy my lessons with Nada and I look forward to them every week. She was able to immediately and accurately evaluate my level in Arabic, and prepared a program that keeps me engaged and working while still staying at an appropriate level of difficulty. She is definitely the most "challenging" (in a good way!) teacher that I have worked with on Italki, because she is constantly pushing me to read more difficult texts, write about interesting and complicated topics, and generally push the limits of what I can do in Arabic. I would definitely recommend her to anyone interested in learning Arabic.

I thoroughly enjoyed my lesson with Nada! She has very good pedagogical skills, and knows how to explain the grammar in a simple and relatable way. She spoke to me only in Arabic, which I was thrilled about, because I'm convinced that maximum exposure to the language is what is needed to learn efficiently. In addition to these points, she has a charming and engaging personality, so the time of the lesson just flew by. I would definitely recommend her to all of you.

My first class with Nada was a bit like going to an Arabic Language doctor. She meticulously assessed my level of proficiency in speaking, listening, reading and writing. She showed me a well organized and comprehensive learning plan. The whole time she was very kind and patient with me. A real professional. I hope to continue with her.

Such chill conversations. I learn so much. I have bad memory and yet I remember the things she teaches me because she takes her time.

I’m really enjoying my lessons with Nada. She is great at explaining things, and balances being both challenging and supportive. Both are particularly important for a student that is completely new to Arabic. In the lessons I’ve had so far I feel like I’ve already improved a lot. Shukran Nada!

Great first lesson with Nada, very optimistic about learning Arabic with her
