    Carol’s podcast and classes are SO great!
    Both Carol’s podcast and classes are so amazing. I have benefited so much from these podcasts as well as the beginner conversation classes and I’m so excited to take more. She is patient, kind, and her classes are super accessible for all levels and really fun. Highly recommend!!!

    I Love the Content
    I love Carol’s content. I just recently started listening to her podcasts. What stuck out to me was episode 37. She’s not only using her platform to teach and spread light on the worlds currents events but she also gives people the opportunity to share their real life stories. That’s amazing and what she’s doing is amazing!

    Outstanding teacher of Levantine Arabic!
    I have thoroughly enjoyed learning Levantine Arabic from Carol. And it’s not just because of learning the language itself which is of course the reason I started with her. But she goes a few steps further. She incorporates teaching about her culture and life in the Middle East. When she describes something, I feel as if I’m there. She also does live cooking classes with some of her favorite dishes. She is so diverse! And she has to be one of the happiest people I’ve ever met. ♥️. You can tell that teaching is her passion and I love how she incorporates it in so many ways. You will come away from her classes and podcasts with a good and happy feeling.

    Immersive learning at its best
    Have been a student of Carol’s Arabic classes and her podcast is an amazing supplement to the course material. The podcasts are a kaleidoscope of everyday topics ranging from the mundane to the eye opening. The podcast itself is in Arabic , keeping in with the concept of immersive learning, interspersed with English translations of more complex vocabulary where the need arises. Carol , her Arabic learning course and this podcast are an easy five stars for all serious linguaphiles.

    Great Levantine Arabic podcast
    Love everything about this... from the stories to the easy way to follow along and listening to the normal fluent conversations, this helps me get familiar with what an everyday conversation is in the native language so it is a more natural way to learn rather than just systematic.... I also love the fact that this girl is not afraid to speak and stand foe what she believes in ... for me as a woman is so important and I truly admire this about you!!!

    I was a fan until…
    I was a fan until Carol decided it become political. I don’t need that and therefore I’m unfollowing.

    Great Levantine Arabic Input!
    I love the format of this podcast, and hearing interviews between Levantine Arabic speakers! There aren't a lot of podcasts like that. The way that Carol adds commentary, explaining certain words/phrases/expressions is great! If you are looking for input in Levantine Arabic, this is a great podcast to listen to! :)

  • Eva.mandy87
    Very interesting, informative, and interactive
    This is not the one of the best language podcast, this is the only best language podcast out there! I have been looking for Arabic podcast for th past few years, they are either speak too fast and assume we learners can catch up, or bad sound, or bad quality. This podcast have nailed it in very aspect, her voice is very pleasant and warm, she speaks at the perfect pace, her topics are very interesting, and the music she puts throughout the episode makes the episode very interesting. My favourite is when she speaks few English here and there helps me understand what she is speaking about if im lost. Many thanks!

    Great teacher
    Carol has been my longtime tutor, and its nice to see her add depth to learning comprehensive via these podcasts. They are super helpful for when I am not doing a one-on-one class. Plus, the pace is good to understand, and not too fast.

    Finally!
    So excited to see this podcast created by Carol at Nasma of New York. She’s an incredible teacher and this new learning tool is one of a kind. There are so few Levantine learning resources out there, so a short podcast with bilingual stories with scripts to reference online is so needed & appreciated! Looking forward to more in the coming weeks!
