I am a polyglot and a professional teacher of Arabic and have been teaching both MSA and Levantine for over 10 years, collaborating with various universities and institutes, including:
• Washington and Lee University (Supplementary Online Teacher)
• Arabesk studies in Damascus.
• The Finnish Institute of the Middle East.
• Italki :)
Me as a Teacher
My focus as a language teacher is to guide and instruct each student in a positive, flexible, and encouraging learning environment so that they can progress confidently towards reaching their language learning goals.
My lessons & teaching style
I use a broad range of materials to aid learning, including Al-Kitab Al-Asasi and Al-Kitab for MSA learners, and several Levantine guides, in addition to my own materials. Depending on the student’s level and need, I customize learning content and utilize a diverse collection of resources to guide them to the next level.

Professor Fadi has a unique pedagogic methodology by which one can become an adept speaker of Arabic at an accelerated pace. He encourages you to go out of your comfort zone and communicate in Arabic during lessons, so that you begin to “live” in the language. I have seen a rapid change in my ability and confidence to communicate in Arabic since I began lessons with Professor Fadi.
Furthermore, Professor Fadi is a very patient and helpful teacher, so the student never feels worried about making a mistake, and his approach therefore is very effective at building confidence with the language, which is of paramount importance.
I would highly recommend Professor Fadi, who goes out of his way to help students as much as possible. He is one of a kind!

I'm scared to keep writing good things about Fadi because I don't want anyone else taking my times! He's definitely the best!

Wowww, I´ve never met a teacher here on italki that is experienced, prepared, and ready to teach. As intimidating as Arabic is, he makes it easy. We went over verb conjugations in this lesson. Even though I was nervous, he was great at making me feel at ease and guiding me through the lesson. Shoukran yaa Fadi. Bedros ktiir il yom ma3ak. :D

Fadi's lessons are wonderful because in addition to increasing my language skills, we get a chance to talk about culture and world news.Having interesting topics like this make it easier to stay encaged and focused on learning.

With the foundation in MSA I have learned from Fadi I am able to see the Shamy words and understand how they came from MSA. Even better, I am able to see how those words migrated to Egyptian Arabic! In the future I will be able to apply this to all dialects, inshallah. Fadi's method of teaching works very well!
