About Shahd
I am a certified English instructor with a 150-hour TESOL certification from Arizona State University. As a native Arabic speaker who transitioned into fluent American English, I know exactly what it feels like to know the grammar rules but still feel "stuck" when it is time to speak. I specialize in helping intermediate and advanced learners move past the textbook and start using English as a tool for real-world connection.

We are moving away from repetitive drills and focusing on how English is actually spoken in the 21st century. My methodology uses immersion through modern media like movies, series, and pop culture to teach you the language that native speakers actually use, rather than the outdated phrases found in traditional classrooms.
Our sessions are a "stress-free zone" designed to build your muscle memory. We will focus on the flow of conversation, learning how to start, maintain, and gracefully exit discussions on any topic.
What You Can Expect
American Slang & Idioms: Mastering the informal language and cultural references that make you sound natural and relatable.
Confidence Building: Practical techniques to overcome the "mental block" and stop translating from Arabic in your head.
Real-World Scenarios: Rehearsing for social events, travel, and casual networking so you never run out of things to say.
Modern Media Integration: Using clips from series and movies to understand nuance, humor, and cultural context.
Who This Is For
This course is for learners who already have a foundation in English but want to develop a more natural, "native-like" flow. If you want to stop "studying" English and start "speaking" it, this is the path for you.

Honestly, this is the first time I've taken an English conversation class, and I'm really enjoying it because there's no explaining rules like in school. It's all conversation, which is exactly what I want.
Ms. Shad is really nice and friendly, and I don't notice the time passing when I'm talking to her.I loved my lessons with Shahd! She’s such a patient and encouraging teacher and made me feel completely comfortable making mistaks, which really helps me learn. She took my requests seriously and even created an entire lesson based on my specific needs 🥹 which meant so much to me. She is incredibly kind and truly cares about her students success. I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher!
I can’t say enough good things about my tutor. She is incredibly helpful and always comes prepared with a well structured lesson plan. It’s clear she puts a lot of time and research into her teaching, ensuring every session is productive. I really appreciate how we never waste time figuring out what to do next she always has a clear plan in place. I also love our yapping sessions
I highly recommend Shahd as an English teacher. She is a passionate and professional educator who consistently motivates her students to achieve academic success. Her lessons are well-structured, engaging, and thoughtfully designed to support different learning styles. She demonstrates patience, creativity, and strong classroom leadership. She is an inspiring and dedicated English teacher who always encourages students to reach their full potential.
Shahd’s approach to teaching English is incredibly effective. Instead of just focusing on textbook rules, she emphasizes how English is actually spoken in the real world. She is excellent at explaining everyday vocabulary, idioms, and conversational flow in a way that makes immediate sense to an Arabic speaker. If you want to stop translating in your head and start speaking fluently, she is the perfect choice.
