Hey, I'm Mimo.
Well. That's me — the guy on the left. Except that photo's about four years old, so these days I'm older and, umm, more “well fed” looking.
I've been helping students reach fluency in Arabic no matter their background, age, or job. Pretty good results, too.
No point droning on about it — listen to a podcast episode, read an article, watch a video. If it's helpful, we're probably a good match. If not, that's OK too.
How this all started
- 1
I started teaching English in Egypt at a language center that only hired foreign teachers.
- 2
The other teachers — foreigners living in Egypt — kept asking me about Egyptian Arabic.
- 3
Answering them was way more fun than any English class I was teaching.
- 4
So I started a YouTube channel for Egyptian Arabic — and I've been at it ever since.
Don't take my word for it
A few messages from students after finishing the course.
“Went from zero to holding real conversations in Cairo. Mimo just makes it click.”
“I finally understand what my grandparents say. It felt personal, not like a textbook.”
“My kids beg for the next lesson. The children's books are a hit at home.”
