We hope you have fun listening to these.  Let us know if there is a suggestion you have for a good playlist idea.

Teacher of the Week #6 Amera Eid

This week, we are proud to feature a rising star, Amera Eid as our Teacher of the Week.

Amera teaches Arabic on italki and has an impressive 5.0 feedback rating.

Check out Amera speaking Arabic in this video with Fluent in 3 months:

 Here’s what some of her students had to say about Amera’s class:

“Amera is very encouraging and is patient with me. She always gives me time to repeat or practice my new words and sentences. I feel very comfortable in my attempt to express myself in Arabic. I love my teacher! “ – michaeljarman

“Amera is awesome! I’ve already learned so much in one half hour intro session! Looking forward to continuing more intensively with her.”  - nicklesb

Dear italki,
