Arabic & French Instructor
Celine is a native Arabic/Lebanese speaker. She was born and raised in Lebanon where she learned to speak fluently French and English.
She received the Fulbright scholarship in 2018 where she taught Modern Standard Arabic at Allegheny College for one academic year. She was trained to teach Arabic in an interactive and student-centered way.
For five years Celine taught Arabic and French at the US embassy of Beirut for the staff and their families, meeting their needs, language preferences and work requirements. Through the Department of State, she received the National Foreign Affairs Language training certificate that expanded her teaching techniques. Her passion for teaching languages has been with her for almost 10 years now.
In her free time, Celine likes to bake/cook different cuisines and try out new recipes. She enjoys reading thriller books (not horror!), exercising and socializing.
