Learn Levantine Arabic (Lebanese & Syrian Dialect) | Practical Conversation & Culture

62 C$ /h

Would you love to speak Arabic as it is actually spoken in Lebanon and Syria?

Whether you are planning to travel to the Middle East, have Arabic-speaking friends or family, work in an international environment, or simply want to discover a new language, I would be delighted to help you.

I offer personalized lessons in Levantine Arabic, focusing on the everyday language used in Lebanon and Syria.

As a multilingual university lecturer familiar with both Arabic-speaking and European environments, I aim to make learning Arabic accessible, practical, and culturally engaging.

What you will learn:

Greetings, introductions, and everyday expressions

How to have natural conversations

Ordering food, shopping, and traveling

Speaking with friends, family, and colleagues

Pronunciation and useful conversational structures

Common Syrian and Lebanese expressions

Understanding cultural nuances and social situations

My teaching approach

My lessons emphasize communication from the beginning. You will practice speaking through realistic situations, short dialogues, and everyday conversations.

No prior knowledge of Arabic is required.

Lessons can be adapted to beginners or learners who already understand some Arabic but want to become more fluent.

I offer online lessons in English, French, or Arabic, with the possibility of regular weekly sessions.

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

Graduated with a master's degree in human sciences, writing and bibliographic research were an integral part of my five years of study. From there, I wish to transmit my knowledge and my strategies to all those interested in this perspective.

Each person having their own background, the first course aims to determine what are the short and long-term objectives, what are the student's abilities and difficulties and what are the sources of motivation for learning. When all of this has been discerned together, a course is mapped out to the final destination which is the achievement of the student's goals.

Do you feel like you're constantly chasing after your homework? Do you never know where to start when a test is approaching? I'm a student, I also juggle classes, revisions and everything else, and I've found methods that work.
We'll go over the subjects you're struggling with together, starting with what you need at the moment.
We work together:
– So that you know how to organize yourself according to your weekly schedule by managing your homework in advance, so that you can revise without last-minute stress;
– So that you can rediscover your motivation. We set achievable goals so that you can see yourself progressing;
– which will give you confidence and make you proud!
And when school is running smoothly, we don't stop there: if you have a project you're passionate about (creative work, sports, career guidance, competitions...), I'll help you develop it alongside your studies. Succeeding at school also means keeping time and energy for what you love.
My goal is not to burden you with another teacher, but to make you feel that you have someone on your side.

I offer philosophy courses tailored to each student's level and objectives, with work focused on understanding authors, constructing clear arguments, and the essay writing method.

The goal is to help the student better analyze a subject, formulate a problem, build a solid plan and develop their ideas rigorously.

We can work on the texts and authors studied in class, the preparation of homework, exams and oral presentations, as well as on difficulties with method or writing.

I study philosophy and literature at university and have extensive experience in private tutoring. Lessons can be one-off or regular, and packages of multiple sessions are available for longer-term support.

The authenticity of an exchange. In a society increasingly rooted in a competitive approach, where automated exchanges with Artificial Intelligence cannot replace the need for human interaction, this is precisely what we lack.
As a lawyer by training and an independent legal consultant, creating the Right to Knowledge (Droit au(x) Savoir(s)) is a breath of fresh air. This offering of private lessons in small groups of no more than three people is aimed directly at high school students, undergraduate or graduate law students, and more generally at anyone intrigued by the beauty of legal language (you'll discover it soon enough). Because learning in a small group cultivates a sense of community while allowing for the expression of your individual perspectives.
Moreover, being currently preparing for the entrance exam to the National School of Magistrates, a solid mastery of legal fundamentals as well as the methods required in legal studies remains.

🎓 It is now necessary to elaborate somewhat on my experience:
- 5 years already dedicated to private lessons (which is significant) via the organization Complétude as well as independently (law, French, science, history and languages).
Regarding the law, and to clarify my point, the teaching that was provided covered and still covers a broad spectrum within the legal field, namely:
- Legal methodology (essential for success: legal essay, practical case study, case commentary and summary note)
- Civil Law (fundamental concepts, contract law, family law, tort law, property law, civil procedure, etc.)
- Criminal Law (fundamental concepts, special criminal law, criminal procedure, criminal law of property and business)
- Administrative Law (fundamental concepts, review of the vast body of existing case law on the subject)
- Labour Law (history of trade unionism, study of the employment contract)
- Public Law (Constitutional Law, Law of Local Authorities, Law of Social Welfare and Action, Constitutional Litigation)
- European Union Law (primary and secondary law, European Union litigation)
- The Law of English-speaking and Spanish-speaking countries
- ... and other subjects directly related to the program of the entrance examination to the National School of the Judiciary.

👋 What about my teaching approach, you might ask?
Beyond this desire for authenticity, it seems particularly crucial to dismantle the prejudices that poison the perception of legal studies. Law can then, and in my humble opinion must, be considered within the delicate balance between discipline and flexibility, between rigor and adaptability.

💬 Wouldn't you be interested?
Please feel free to contact me by message and I remain available to discuss the frequency of classes and their modalities (in-person in Tours, videoconference and possibility of travel if necessary).

In the meantime, Madam/Sir, it would be a real pleasure for me to support you as best I can on your path to success because, as its name suggests: you have the Right to Knowledge! 😉

As an active secondary school teacher of Germanic languages and pedagogical project coordinator, I find that 80% of learners primarily struggle with a lack of study methodology and feel uneasy with basic principles of organization and effective learning.

Having written my degree dissertation on neuroscience applied to both general learning and language acquisition, I offer study skills sessions built around two key pillars:

The First: Organization.

Getting organized, finding one's bearings, and understanding clearly where you stand and where you are headed. Learning how to take stock of available resources to identify what is missing before even tackling the subject matter itself.

The Second: Active Learning & Retention.

Truly remembering, maintaining knowledge and practical skills, manipulating the material, connecting concepts, and applying spaced repetition. If I tell you my phone number 100 times in a single day, you will remember it today but forget it shortly after. If I share it with you 10 times across several days and through varied angles, you will retain it for life!
