Languages

English, French, Spanish, German, Dutch, Russian, Arabic, Mandarin, Persian, Somali, & counting..

Thanks to growing up in a multinational house, linguistics and cultural curiosity came naturally. With classical language learning, online methods, working with refugees, and college courses, I have acquired 9 languages to various levels over the course of two decades.

​

Under each language's page, you can find language-specific tips and resources, in addition to my personal connection to the language and reason for learning it.

PS- As a tribute to my language learning abilities, I am a member of the International Association of Hyperpolyglots, or HYPIA. A hyperpolyglot is someone who can speak six or more languages at B2+ levels. I used English, French, Spanish, Arabic (MSA), Arabic (Iraqi), and Mandarin for my submission. Now, I bet I could add Persian to that list! You can see my profile on the platform here.
