Jibril is a very good person. He sometimes doesn't understand the questions asked but will still try to answer. He is a great Arabic speaker and cares deeply about his students. Very good feedback and lenient. I highly recommend ustadh Jibril!!Rate My Professors ↗
Jibril was so helpful when I was starting Arabic for the first time! He expects the most from his students, but he's also very understanding and forgiving when you mess up or miss assignments. He's great at explaining grammar concepts and always open for any kind of question anyone might have.Rate My Professors ↗
Jibril is honestly the nicest person I have ever met in my entire life, and I'm not even exaggerating. A great instructor!Rate My Professors ↗
Jibril is a great teacher and always very supportive when people make mistakes or forget things, and he always gives the opportunity for anyone to ask any questions, which is very helpful when learning a language. There is a lot of homework but it's relatively effort-based and I think it's part of the overall Arabic class and not his choice.Rate My Professors ↗
