English Language - reading, writing, speaking and listening

From 43 C$ /h

Reading, writing, speaking and listening – the four foundational skills of language learning. This skills are very useful in our day to day task wherever you are. You can’t build a house without a strong foundation (well, that’s if you want the house to stay upright in all weather!). Similarly, you won’t become a well-rounded speaker of a language without building upon the four foundations of language learning.
When we say that someone ’speaks‘ a language fluently, we usually mean that they have a high level in all four skills – listening, speaking, reading and writing. But, as any teacher knows, learners often have strengths or weaknesses in particular skills, and in some cases can achieve high levels in, for example, reading and writing, while not being able to speak or listen at a comparable level.
Open to students of all levels, my course usually is taught online, using a variety of visual aids and a wide range of material, from textbooks to YouTube videos. In teaching advanced learners, I often refer to pieces of literature such as novels and poems, since they easily spark discussions, which in turn improves the students' grasp and feel of the language. In doing so, I take students beyond ordinary textbooks and grammar books, since they are no more than guides to learning, not absolute authorities, and because to me language is a living, constantly evolving matter, which you must submerge yourself into in order to understand.
In addition, I am a licensed professional teacher here in the Philippines with 5 years experience of actual teaching. I also have 21 units in Masters Degree Major in Educational Management. A consistent honor student in my elementary and high school days which gives me an edge and assurance that I have a good educational foundation. Are you interested? then contact me today!

Extra information

- basic grammar + vocab skill is a must
- for webcam tutoring - PC and a microphone is required
- for in-person tutoring - dictionary (Oxford - English/English, or any dictionary from your language to English).

I also participated in every school activities such as dance troop, cheer dance competition, drum and bugle competition and was even selected as assistant Majorite ,academic competitions as well as joining church organizations in our locality. All those experiences helped me shaped my personality as an independent woman, resourceful and boosted my confidence in presenting myself to the public. That journey was very memorable and is worth cherished for.
As a teacher, as well as an educator, I love asking random questions to my students and I make sure that they are listening attentively because the process of teaching and learning takes place when the teacher and student both collaborate to achieve a specific goal which is for the student to learn and much better if the student can able to apply in real life situation.

Arabic becomes much easier when speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary are developed as connected skills rather than taught as isolated rules.

I am a native Arabic speaker, PhD-qualified engineer, university professor, researcher, and multidisciplinary tutor with more than 30 years of experience in teaching, training, mentoring, academic work, and personalized learning.

This class is designed for children, teenagers, university students, professionals, heritage learners, and adult learners who want to build a clear and confident command of Arabic. Lessons can be taught in Arabic, English, or French, allowing explanations to be adapted to the learner’s linguistic background and level.

Depending on your objectives, we can focus on one specific pathway or combine several skills into a structured learning program.

• Personalized progression for learners raised outside the Arab world

My teaching approach follows a clear progression:
understand → hear → pronounce → read → use → write → analyze → communicate independently

I do not teach Arabic as a disconnected collection of vocabulary lists and grammar rules. I connect language structure to meaningful texts, conversation, writing, and real communication. Depending on the learner’s age and level, lessons may include guided dialogues, fully vocalized texts, visual explanations, reading passages, grammar analysis, structured exercises, dictation, storytelling, writing tasks, and personalized practice.

We can work with your school curriculum, university course, textbook, reading difficulties, grammar questions, writing samples, professional objectives, heritage-language needs, or personal learning goals.

Whether you are learning your first Arabic letters, improving conversation, strengthening reading, mastering grammar, developing academic writing, or reconnecting with Arabic as a heritage language, I will adapt the sessions to your level, objectives, pace, and preferred learning style.

My goal is to help you understand Arabic as a living, structured, and expressive language—and to use it with increasing accuracy, confidence, and independence.

✅ Why do some people trust you... and others resist everything you say?

Why can the same argument convince one person and leave another completely indifferent?

Why do some negotiations fail before they've even really begun?

Because words are only part of the message.

✅ Behind every behavior, every reaction, every silence, there are motivations, fears, needs, defense mechanisms, stakes, and a particular way of perceiving the world. For each person, the right words, the right approach. For the 'profiler' that I am, there is no doubt about it.

This training program offers you the techniques, methods, and tools to learn how to decipher human behavior. Not to manipulate, but to better understand, communicate more effectively, and act with greater precision. And to influence others.

✅ You will learn, among other things, to:

→ Getting to know you better
Identify your own mechanisms, your automatic reactions, your strengths, your limitations, and how your personality influences your decisions and relationships.

→ Read the others with more nuance
Observe what lies behind the words: the inconsistencies, the unspoken, the changes in behavior, the intentions and the real stakes of an interaction.

→ Decoding verbal and non-verbal communication
Word choice, tone of voice, rhythm, hesitations, silences, gestures, attitudes, micro-behavioral changes: learn to observe before interpreting.

→ **Understanding psychological profiles
Why do some people need control, recognition, security, or freedom? Why do some attack, avoid, seduce, resist, or constantly seek to convince?

→ Adapt your communication to the person you are facing.
Because you can't convince everyone in the same way.

→ Better negotiate and manage complex situations
Understanding what is really at stake for the other party in order to identify the right levers and build a more effective communication strategy.

→ Achieve your goals with greater relational intelligence
By better understanding the people with whom you need to convince, collaborate, negotiate, lead, or build a relationship.

✅ True power isn't about talking more. It's about understanding before acting. Understanding what motivates a person. Understanding what they're really trying to protect. Understanding what they're not saying. Understanding why they're reacting... sometimes even before they themselves put words to what's happening.

This training will equip you with tools from psychology, behavioral analysis, communication, and profiling to develop an essential skill: the ability to better understand people. Because when you understand yourself better, you make better decisions. When you understand others better, you communicate more effectively.

And when you understand the psychological dynamics at play in an interaction, you significantly increase your ability to positively influence a situation and achieve your goals. Don't just listen to what people say. Learn to understand why they say it.

In just a few minutes, you can sometimes understand about a person what months of discussions have never revealed...

✅ THE CONSULTANT:

Having graduated from a prestigious French engineering school after preparatory classes and from an Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher and trainer has specialized and worked for over 18 years in Europe and North America in the field, in renowned international public and private institutions, regularly speaking at forums and conferences, and also offering personalized INDIVIDUAL support, with pedagogy and careful methodology as the key words.

Learn Arabic in a practical, friendly and personalised way. I teach both Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and Moroccan Arabic (Darija), from beginner to more advanced levels.

My lessons focus on helping you communicate naturally and confidently. Depending on your goals, we can work on speaking, listening, pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, reading and everyday conversations.

If you are learning Moroccan Darija, I can also help you understand how Moroccans actually speak in daily life, with useful expressions, dialogues and cultural context.

Lessons are adapted to your level and goals, whether you are learning Arabic for travel, family, work, relationships, studies or simply because you are interested in the language.

During the lessons, we use conversations, exercises, quizzes, role plays and personalised learning materials so you can practise what you learn immediately.

Beginners are very welcome — you do not need any previous knowledge of Arabic.
