علا الدهيبي

Founded by Oula.

Assalamu Alaikum! I'm Oula.

I'm a native Arabic speaker from Lebanon and a passionate Arabic and Qur'an teacher with over three years of experience teaching non-native speakers from around the world. My goal is to make every lesson enjoyable, structured, and meaningful, helping students build confidence while developing a genuine love for the Arabic language and the Qur'an.

I offer one-to-one lessons, online or in person in Lebanon, for children, teenagers, and adults in: Arabic • Conversation • Qur'an reading • Tajweed. Because I believe every student has their own way of learning, I make sure to adapt the lessons to each student's age, level, needs, and goals, and to make every lesson clear, structured, interactive, and enjoyable.

In their words.

Students on what changed.

My teacher is very patient with me and helps me understand Arabic terminologies and concepts.

Bashirat G.

I really like my teacher because she always helps me if I cannot do it, and she encourages me to practise the surah we are learning. I like the techniques she uses. Overall I think she is just a really great teacher.

Mariam K.

Ms. Ola has been an encouraging teacher. She praises where appropriate and corrects where needed.

Tasnim A.

Zeina really enjoyed the lesson, and afterwards she remembered everything you had worked on with her. The lesson was lovely and varied, with a lot of interaction, and the time passed so quickly we did not feel it. May Allah give you strength.

You learn. Someone else learns because you did.
