I’m Aaron—a professional Arabic educator with a background in translation and interpretation, and years of experience living in the Middle East.

While pursuing my degree in Arabic translation and interpretation, I became fascinated with how people naturally speak—and how rarely that was reflected in traditional language instruction. I noticed that most courses were overly formal, overly academic, and disconnected from how Arabic is actually used in daily life.

That’s when I began developing my own method: Reverse-engineering language learning based on how native speakers talk during their ordinary day.

Instead of memorizing vocabulary lists or formal grammar rules, I focused on breaking down the actual phrases and patterns people use when talking about their routines, needs, and experiences. I started applying this method to my own learning—and eventually, to teaching others.
