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!

I like to use different methods to teach French to students. It can be through songs, drama, role play or videos. I also very often use situations close to the student's experience, such as describing places they have been or talking about what they have experienced. At the same time, I teach the grammar rules to the student. I now live in regions where French has been spoken for over 30 years. Because I have learned French myself (and I am still learning other languages), I can easily put myself in a student's shoes. I can teach in French, Dutch, English, German and Russian.

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 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!
