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 can teach English to kids using a fun and educational way. I will make sure to keep their attention focused and teach all speaking, reading, and writing. It will be one-on-one, so I will focus directly on them and ensure they understand everything I explain to them fully. I will use the direct method, where I will only speak in English and not their native language so they will get used to the listening aspect.

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!

In this class I help kids learn math and science in a fun and easy way. I explain things step by step and use games, examples, and simple activities so everything is easier to understand. The goal is to help students feel more confident, ask questions, and enjoy learning math and science. It is about understanding how things work, learning how to think logically, and enjoying the process of learning. I adapt my teaching to the needs of each child and encourage curiosity, creativity and independent thinking.
