“I had taken Standard Palestinian Arabic classes before, but I wanted to focus specifically on improving my spoken skills and learning the Palestinian dialect to better understand the older generation of my family. My Palestinian teacher, Saja Amro, was amazing throughout the process. She helped me feel confident speaking, even when I made mistakes, and guided me through grammar, vocabulary, and practical dialect usage instead of standard Arabic, which has been much more helpful for real-life communication.
Over the course of the 10-class program, I noticed significant improvement. I can now understand more when people speak to me, and I can form sentences more accurately and naturally. Each lesson was engaging, and something I looked forward to, and Saja always made sure I understood and felt comfortable with the material. Her patience, kindness, and supportive approach created a safe and motivating learning environment, making the entire experience enjoyable and effective.
I truly wish I could have taken more classes or had longer sessions, because the learning experience was that rewarding. I highly recommend Saja’s classes to anyone wanting to learn Palestinian Arabic in a friendly, structured, and immersive way.”— Tahani A, United States
