My lessons would always involve an initial understanding of what you would like to learn, and then structure bespoke lessons according to that need and time frame.

If you are looking for basic phrases then I will put together commonly used ones required for travel and we can work through some recommended resources to completion.

If you are looking for an understand of Arabic customs and religious etiquettes I will provide scenarios such as how to greet, how to eat, visiting people’s homes or places of worship and avoid offending people without realising.

If you are wishing to learn more about the religion of Islam and the beliefs of Muslims I am happy to provide the basic facts in a non denominational and non sectarian way so that you have knowledge of the faith of potential hosts or business partners.

I am also happy to teach how to pronounce Arabic letters and words particularly difficult sounds not commonly used in other languages such as the letters “ayn” ? and “Ha” ? as I am experienced in teaching that as well should that be required.

The most important thing to note is that there are 22 Arabic countries and 49 Muslim countries across different continents, some with their own dialects and each with their own unique customs.

My aim is to equip you with enough so that at the very least you will come away with a basic understand of Arabic and Muslim culture and be confident to navigate your way out of any potential embarrassing situations.
