About Me
italki teacher since Jul 24, 2023Interest topicTravelHistoryGamingScienceSports & Fitness
Hello! I'm Mahdi, hailing from the picturesque region of Kurdistan (born and raised in Sulaymaniyah). finding a suitable Sorani tutor can be challenging, but you are just in the right place. I'm passionate about sharing my Kurdish heritage and culture. As a native Kurdish speaker, I can introduce you to the richness of Kurdish language and traditions.
For the past few years, I've been teaching Kurdish in various settings. Beyond language, my interests include playing video games, snooker, and chess - I'm a huge fan! I also enjoy delving into scientific articles and, of course, dreaming of exploring the world through travel.
I'm not just your tutor; I'm here to be your friend as well.Me as a Teacher
I've been teaching Kurdish for several years, and it's more than just a job—it's a passion. I take great pride in creating a dynamic and nurturing learning environment where you can confidently and effectively master Kurdish. My approach goes beyond teaching; it's about building meaningful connections with my students, ensuring they feel supported, motivated, and at ease throughout every lesson.My lessons & teaching style
I offer conversational classes, guiding my students to acquire the essential skills for engaging in simple conversations. Additionally, I can instruct them on the grammar necessary to construct straightforward sentences.My teaching material

As you can see, I have done almost 50 lessons with Mahdi to get myself to a basic conversational level of Kurdish before my trip to Erbil. He is by far the best Sorani teacher I have had and could not recommend him more highly ; his patience, intelligence and good humour are all qualities that make him an exceptional teacher and person. I wish him all the best in his future endeavours - he will succeed in whatever he does.

Mahdi is an amazing teacher!
He has a good energy, he is creative, organized and punctual ( more than the student!) .
I enjoy having lessons together.
I would certainly recommend him to other students too!
Zor supas bo yarmatit, Mahdi!

I am Kurd born and living in the United Kingdom. From a young age i spoke Kurdish but as I grew older, after going through state school and making friends who only spoke English, I forgot how to speak Kurdish with correct grammar, especially as I was never taught through reading and writing, only orally.
Mahdi is a truly gentle, kind, and caring character and his love and passion for helping others learn Kurdish is clearly shown.
Very polite and professional, as you converse with him he will provide you with any vocabulary that you may need to continue the flow of the conversation. He listens patiently, allowing you with enough opportunity to speak.
I highly recommend this true gentleman.

I became much better in Kurdish Soran with Mahdi. He is not just a very good teacher, he is also an amazing, intellectual and open mind person.
