About Me
italki teacher since Apr 20, 2015Me as a Teacher
As an instructor, I am keen on making sure that students are comfortable and I always customize my lessons to each student’s needs. In terms of teaching materials, if you have a specific book you would like to use, I would be happy to teach you from it. Otherwise, after an initial lesson I will be able to gain a sense of your needs and I will provide you with the appropriate materials. I can also record the lessons and provide you with audio or video files that you can use to study after class. My lessons & teaching style
If a student has a specific book they would like to use, I would be happy to teach them using that book. Otherwise, for some lessons I use materials that I have created myself, while for others I rely on existing books. I also use popular Syrian television shows in my courses on the Levantine dialect. From previous experiences I have found this method to be very effective, especially when combined with regular conversation practice on a variety of topics.
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to hearing from you!My teaching material

It was an awesome lesson as usual. Rafah is an excellent professional Arabic teacher. She has never wasted even a minute during the lesson. Her lesson is organized very well. She is a very diligent teacher. She has good patience as well. She explains to me with good patience in polite manner until I can understand grammar and the meaning of the sentences. I will continue to take her lessons and will do my best to improve my Arabic.

A great lesson as usual. Even after 18 months taking regular lessons with Rafah, she still manages to motivate me and keep me wanting to learn more. Rafah is very knowledgeable with all the arabic dialects, particularly Levantine and will happily point out the sometimes subtle pronunciation differences. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Rafa is a great teacher. I have been learning the Syrian dialect with her for about 9 months and my classes with her have helped me improve my Arabic a lot during this time. She is flexible and is willing to focus on what you want to focus on. She is very knowledgeable about the Arabic language (both MSA and dialect) and is also good at explaining the cultural elements associated with the language. She is a very likable and caring person and I always enjoy my classes with her.

Rafah-- that was a great lesson. Thank you so much! I learned so much in this hour with you, and it's great how you can type out everything we're saying in real time. I hope to see you soon!
