Hala Alzeat

Hala is great! I have been taking lessons with her a while and it has been a pleasure throughout. She is a warm and approachable person who is easy to talk to, and makes it easy to breakaway through any self-doubt while speaking/learning a foreign language! her podcast lessons provide an interesting and relatable way to become familiar with the language in your own time and she is always supportive both in and out of the lesson. can only recommend!

I heard a metaphor recently that drew a comparison between learning languages and swimming in the ocean - no matter how confident you are in your swimming ability, your energy is finite, and you will eventually grow fatigued from the effort. Meanwhile, the ocean is infinite in its width and depth. To survive, you need to find "islands" to rest upon - "islands" of core vocabulary and common expressions. Hala has been an outstanding "swim" instructor, building my confidence in braving the waves to get to the next "island". Here's to conquering the sea, or at least, our fear of it!

I have studying Arabic for close to 7 years, and I have been taught by a variety of teachers and tutors in every setting imaginable, and I have to say Hala is my favorite. She is patient as she helps me with my pronunciation errors or particularly hard words. She also provides a wealth of audio recordings and stories that I can use outside of class for listening- which is often the hardest skill to master. You can tell Hala is the type of person who loves what she does, and also loves being great at it. Since I am taking advanced Arabic- lessons become discussions about life itself. There is never a shortage of topics to discuss, and the conversation flows easily. For beginners, I imagine this comfortable environment she fosters to be a great benefit- we are all scared in the beginning. Encouragement and kindness paired with consistent correction make for a great teacher. I highly recommend anyone with a desire to learn Arabic and the passion for learning to take lessons with Hala.

I always have a frat time with my teacher . She always makes me feel confident about my progress and also helps to motivate me when I can’t properly process some information due to being too worried about pronunciation or grammar. Hala is the best person and teacher ever ! ☺️🙃😍

Fun lesson talking about Arab culture! Specifically working on pronouns to describe events and conversations about other people. Challenging but all but of the wonderful learning journey 🙌 Grateful for my lessons
