Hi, I’m Maram! I teach Arabic to students of all ages and levels in Brussels. With 9 years of experience, I’ve worked with children, adults, and university students from diverse backgrounds.

I specialize in both Classic Arabic and Levantine Arabic. Whether you already speak Classic Arabic or don’t speak Arabic at all, you can start learning Levantine Arabic with me! I’ve learned tricks that help you learn faster, and I love sharing them with my students. I speak more than five languages, so I know what it takes to master a new one!

My approach is very interactive and based on what works best for you. I use games, songs, and discussions to make learning feel natural, and I’ll always focus on your personal goals—whether it’s speaking fluently, passing an exam, or mastering the language for a special job.

So, if you’re ready to start, we’ll talk about how you learn best, and we’ll create a plan together that works for you.
And remember, learning Arabic isn’t just about words—it’s about culture, history, and politics. With me, you’ll get the full package!

Depending on your request, the class can focus on the improvement of your oral or written competencies. If you want to learn grammar or master your letter writing or comprehension skills, we will work on that.

Mes cours tournent en grande partie autour d'un manuel qui est à se procurer extérieurement mais ma priorité est de m'adapter aux envies de l'élève.
Cela se déroule généralement les dimanches mais les horaires peuvent varier en fonction des disponibilités de l'élève et des miennes.
J'offre également la possibilité d'assister au cours par deux, dans le cas où des ami(e)s souhaiteraient y participer ensemble.

Do you want to improve your English, whether for professional, personal, or academic reasons, or perhaps you need academic support? This course is for you!

I offer English lessons or customized tutoring sessions tailored to your level, regardless of your age. Through interactive and dynamic sessions, I am committed to helping you progress quickly in learning and mastering the language without overwhelming you, adapting to your pace and personal goals.

In our lessons, we will learn or review the basics: grammar, essential vocabulary, spelling, simple conversations, as well as listening and reading comprehension. We will also work on speaking, writing, and understanding and analyzing more complex texts. If you need academic support, I can also help you better understand your lessons, complete your exercises, and prepare for your exams.

I offer learning through varied activities (role-playing, exercises, readings, discussions), regular monitoring to assess your progress and adapt lessons to your needs, as well as a relaxed and motivating atmosphere to help you gain confidence.

About me :
I am currently a student at VUB in an English-language program and a native English-speaking tutor. I spent two years at the French School of Shanghai, where I gave private French and English lessons. There, I had the opportunity to work with students from diverse backgrounds and levels, adapting my methods to their specific needs.

Is it easier to learn Italian or French? Italian or Portuguese? Italian or Swedish? Who knows! After starting to study my fifth language, I would love to have an answer... perhaps we will discover it together, by discussing in Italian, whether you are a beginner or at a more advanced level.

I would be delighted to organize learning sessions tailored to your objectives, if you have any, and your favorite subjects. I am passionate about urban planning, adventure books, theater, and olive oil, but I am also very curious and ready to prepare on your favorite topics.

I love beautiful grammar, but when learning a new language, my mantra is: "Language is a means of communication."

...and like true Italians, we will also learn to talk with our hands!

I offer English lessons focused on reading, writing, and speaking skills, immersion in the culture and history of the language and English-speaking peoples, and I use methods tailored to each student to ensure the fastest and most lasting progress. To achieve this, I utilize a variety of resources: traditional exercises (grammar, spelling), oral and audio exercises for pronunciation and comprehension, music and games, educational videos, and more.
I place great importance on writing by hand and not just typing on a computer, as well as on non-traditional learning methods (films, music with lyrics, games) because this engages different parts of the brain more deeply and makes it easier to learn and retain information.
I guarantee personalized learning methods and support for each student, as well as a significant improvement in level in less time than it takes via traditional platforms.

I trained as a translator and interpreter at the Mons School of International Interpreters. This training is based on learning spoken language first... no unnecessary and tedious grammar... but phonetics, the MUSIC of language... the essential tool! People call me a magician...
Speaking a language is like singing to music, with its own unique phonetics! English is a prime example...
Learning while having fun with an effective teacher who puts you at ease. Perform, progress, quickly and well without any "pain," and gain confidence. I've helped "save" some hopeless cases... for me, it's a challenge I take on with enthusiasm every time!
