I use conversations, text images, games, videos, stories to facilitate learning.

I am patient, sociable, and I listen to my learners.
In short, I help you to be able to speak, read, and write in Standard Arabic or Tunisian Arabic. 💐

I am currently in my fourth semester of teacher training and have been giving private tutoring lessons on and off since finishing high school. Two years ago, I started tutoring privately as a side job, giving up to eight hours of private lessons per week in the subjects mentioned above, or whatever else was needed, for students aged 8 to 23.

For me, the personal aspect is central. It's important to me to see each student and try to understand where their understanding is lacking, and then to build on that understanding. With kindness and patience, I try to support their learning and motivate them.

I would be happy to hear from you!

I'm currently in the 4th semester of training to learn and, after completing the obligatory school course, I don't have to regulate the cours de soutien scolaire. Il ya deux ans, j'ai commencé à enseigner en privé comme activité accessoire. There are only 8 hours of course per week in different matières, including the different levels, 8 to 23 years old.

Pour me, the aspect of personnel is essential. I have a heart for your individuality and understanding of the situation in difficult situations with the ability to intervene precisely at the end. With good care and patience, you will learn how to learn from the apprenticeship and encourage motivation.

I remember receiving a message from your part!

I offer a programming / coding class for kids / adults.

During my lessons, I perform a full tutorial of a programming language of your choice. If you do not have a choice I generally start with python as it is the most friendly one :).

Programming is like learning another language and I am help you speak it. From my experience, going over basics takes 10 lessons on average but, of course, you are free to start and quit as you want or ask for a lesson specifically focusing on a certain aspect of programming.

If this sounds like something you or your child (or both) would be interested in, let me know :))
