Picture talk
I describe photos in clear Arabic.
Real Arabic. Zero pressure.
You speak English. Hasan speaks Arabic. We have a genuine conversation and your brain acquires the language naturally.
What is crosstalk?
Crosstalk is simple: two people each speak their own language and understand through context rather than translation.
What we actually do
Street View
We explore Arab cities and talk about what we see.
Video and discussion
We watch a short clip and discuss it in Arabic.
Common questions
Do I need to know any Arabic?
Not a word. Crosstalk works through meaning and context.
Which Arabic, Modern Standard or dialect?
Both. Levantine Arabic and Modern Standard Arabic are available.
What do we actually talk about?
Photos, Arab cities, short clips, culture, and interests that make the Arabic understandable.
How is this different from a regular Arabic tutor?
You do not produce Arabic before you are ready. You acquire it through understandable conversation.
How often should I do sessions?
Once a week works well, especially combined with Arabic All The Time videos.
How do I pay for regular sessions?
Ongoing sessions are paid through PayPal, then booked through the calendar link.
