Arabic: Tasnim Alkyam, B.A.
Tasnim has been tutoring Arabic since 2012 that is when she started teaching Arabic as a foreign language at the CET Academic Programs.
Arabic: Karima
Growing up in Morocco gave her exposure to Moroccan Arabic (Darija), Modern Standard Arabic, French, English, and even Spanish, especially through the cultural influences found across different regions of the country.
Speak! is about CONNECTION!
Many of our favorite moments happen when teachers and students learn, laugh, and connect beyond the lesson.
