Sr. Reda Eid- 1-4th Grade Arabic, 1-2nd Grade Islamic Studies & Quran

Assalamu Alaikum

I have been teaching at Al-Hikmah School Arabic, Islamic Studies & Quran for 14 years. With every year that passes, I gain more experience and I tweak my teaching style to better suit the learning needs of the students. Learning Arabic is difficult in a non-Arabic speaking society, so my goal is to make sure students enjoy learning the language so they can hold on to it after class. I feel that the most important thing is quality not quantity.

My final message that I would like to deliver is I love my students and I like to make them feel special in their own way so they can have a passion for learning.

I love teaching and I work very hard to teach the students the Arabic language since it's their second language.
