We teach kids in fun, interactive, and modern ways to help them learn a foreign language and connect to Arabic culture. Schedule a class with us today.

Our Method

Zizina is a type of butterfly, and we take inspiration from the butterfly as we instruct children in Egyptian Arabic. Students begin speaking at the caterpillar level, but as they progress, they eventually transform into a butterfly, speaking the language on their own.

Everyone learns languages different, which is why we offer multiple Egyptian Arabic kids’ classes, including:

  • After-school enrichment programs
  • Group classes
  • Private classes
  • School break camps
  • Summer camps abroad

We even offer mommy-and-me courses where mothers can learn Arabic along with their children.

Our Promise

We endeavor to provide a positive, engaging learning environment for children of all backgrounds. With our guidance, children can learn a new language, engage their curiosity, and learn more about Arabic culture.

    Ms. Einas is truly gifted in her ability to bring creative and engaging material to keep both my 6 and 3-year old full captivated and learning at the same time. The lessons are a lot of fun- the kids look forward to the classes and love the stories, songs and activities that Ms. Einas brings with her to every class. I had been searching for an Arabic teacher like Ms. Einas for over a year. Highly recommended for children looking to learn Arabic!

    Ms. Einas had submitted a very interesting demo lesson where she applied modern teaching techniques and used appropriate presentation skills to achieve the stated lesson learning objectives. Her skills in using technology and PowerPoint in class are outstanding. She also has brilliant ideas for classroom activities. She is very creative to the extent that she designs and implements her own activity materials and games for educational purposes. Einas also has a pleasant character and good classroom management skills. I really enjoyed her demo lesson and believe that any student would do too.

    My favorite part about Arabic class is when we play memory with the body parts cards and when we played Simon says. I like learning the shapes and colors and organizing them. I think Einas is the best Arabic teacher, she is funny, she is smart and she has a good hair. أنا إسمي آيو أنا عندي سبع سنين

    I reached out to Einas to help with teaching Arabic to my sons (ages 7 and 3) and she is simply brilliant. She knows how to handle all ages and make the process engaging and so fun. The boys have picked up a lot of Arabic in such a short amount of time. We love seeing her every week and feel very lucky to have found her. I 100% would recommend her to Arabic lessons for any and all ages.

  • Nathalie (Natasha's mom)
    We met Einas through Alefb program that offered an Arabic after-school at PS58, my daughter's school. My daughter Natasha had the chance to be taught Arabic by Einas whose classes were fun and yet very content oriented. Natasha came home knowing the new vocabulary and with sheets, she loved to go over during the week. She quickly developed a real excitement for this new language and enjoyed very much all the games she played in class. We are a  French family, I speak some Arabic myself and I was amazed to see how fast my daughter was able to learn the language and remember it. I also teach young kids and I must say that the project-based classes that Einas offered were a winner! Einas passion for teaching really did the magic!

     "Thank you so much Einas for teaching me Arabic! Thanks to you I learned Arabic in such a fun way. I enjoyed so much all the games and projects you prepared for us. I really love the language and can't wait to become really fluent and be able to travel to some Arabic speaking countries!"
