I am a language teacher and linguist, originally from Rabat. Moroccan Darija is my mother tongue and I have been teaching languages since 2012.

My courses are aimed at people who wish to learn to understand and speak the darija actually used in Morocco, whether to communicate with their family or spouse, prepare for a stay in Morocco, live there, work with Moroccans or simply discover the Moroccan language and culture.

A method adapted to your level:
Each course is structured according to your level, pace, and objectives.

If you are a beginner, we will progress gradually, starting with the most useful vocabulary and structures for everyday life.

If you already know Darija, we will focus more on conversation, listening comprehension, vocabulary, Moroccan expressions and fluency.

My background in language sciences also allows me to explain the logic of the language: word construction, conjugation, pronunciation, differences between Darija and Standard Arabic, as well as some particularities specific to Moroccan speech.

You will learn, in particular, to:
- introduce yourself and talk about yourself;
- understand and participate in everyday conversations;
- communicate with family and friends;
- use the most frequent verbs and expressions;
- ask questions and answer them naturally;
- to gradually understand Moroccans when they speak;
- to enrich your vocabulary and improve your pronunciation.

Oral practice plays an important role in my courses. We work with dialogues, concrete situations, and exchanges tailored to your needs.

I can also provide you with exercises and materials to continue practicing between sessions.

The lessons are fully personalized and can be explained in French, Spanish or Arabic, according to your preference.

Beginners, intermediate and advanced are welcome.

If you wish to learn Moroccan Darija in a structured way while developing natural communication skills, I would be happy to assist you.
