    English and Arabic lessons for people who are interested in learning languages and / practice with a passionate teacher.

    Levantine Arabic & English Tutor | Levantine Arabic for NGO Professionals | Real-Life English for All Learners

    With over six years of experience as a full-time Arabic instructor, I’ve helped professionals—especially those working with international NGOs such as UNICEF, IOM, NRC, and Save the Children—achieve fluency in Levantine and Iraqi Arabic. My structured scaffolding method enables students, even complete beginners, to hold real-life conversations within their first few lessons.



    🔹 Arabic Teaching – For Humanitarian & Field Professionals

    Conversational Mastery – My Arabic lessons focus on speaking from day one, using real-life situations and everyday language that professionals need in the field.
    Immersive Learning – I use role-play, authentic media, and cultural scenarios to strengthen vocabulary, listening, and speaking skills.
    Field-Specific Focus – I understand the linguistic and cultural demands of humanitarian work in Arabic-speaking countries and tailor my lessons to help you communicate effectively in real-world, high-impact settings.



    🇺🇸English Teaching – For Everyday Use, Travel, Work, and Fluency Building

    I also teach English to learners from a variety of backgrounds—children, teens, adults, and professionals—at language centers and through private tutoring. My English lessons focus on natural communication and are built around what you need in real life:
    • Everyday conversation
    • Travel and social interactions
    • Listening and speaking fluency
    • Real English through music, TV shows, films, and authentic reading materials

    Whether you’re learning English for school, work, or personal growth, my goal is to make it practical, fun, and meaningful.




    Whether you’re a professional needing Arabic for fieldwork, or a learner who wants to speak real, everyday English, I’d be happy to support your journey with personalized, conversation-focused lessons.

    Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)
    Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children. We can delve into the intricacies of communication, focusing on what matters to you. I prepare students for tests like DELE and SIELE, tailoring my approach to your unique goals—whether it's acing an exam, exploring the world, or simply diving into language and culture. My lessons take a casual twist—we might stroll around, grab a coffee or tea, and make learning an enjoyable experience. The best part for me is when students express gratitude for our time together. I believe language is more than just words, and I look forward to sharing my perspective with you. Can't wait to meet you and start this language journey together!

    Everyday English and Chinese! Language made simple
    Learning a new language can feel like trying to read IKEA instructions—backwards. But don’t worry, I’m here to make it simple, practical, and even a little fun (yes, even grammar!). Whether you’re just starting or you’ve been ghosting Duolingo for months (we’ve all been there), this class is for real people who want to actually speak Chinese or English in daily life. 🗣️ What you’ll get: • Real conversation practice – no robot-sounding textbook stuff • Useful words and phrases (like how to say “I’m lost” and “Where’s the bathroom?”—top priorities!) • Pronunciation help so people actually understand you • Cultural tips so you don’t accidentally insult someone’s grandmother • 1-on-1 lessons, so it’s all about you Whether you’re trying to order hotpot in Mandarin without burning your tongue 🔥, or finally want to say something in English other than “Hello, my name is...” – this class is your safe, supportive space. 🧠 Bonus: We’ll laugh through the mistakes (yes, tones in Chinese can betray you 😅), celebrate the wins (you ordered coffee in English and it wasn’t a disaster!), and help you feel like a language legend in no time. 🌱 Build Real Progress One lesson is a great start — but you’ll see real, lasting progress after a few sessions. That’s when you’ll start surprising yourself with how much you can understand and say. Think of it like planting a language seed — let’s water it together and watch it grow! 🌿 Ready? Bring your curiosity (and maybe a snack), and let’s start speaking!
