Abdullah Burhan Saleh

ESL teacher and founder of a small education center in Qatana, Syria. I design every lesson I teach. These are real materials from my classes, shown as my students used them.

900+ teaching hours  ·  in person and online  ·  Foundation to B1+

  1. 1
    Private one-to-one lesson, Blue Ocean Language and Business School

    A phone that rings and talks back

    A lesson on phone calls for an A2 student. The page holds a working phone: four callers speak aloud, one of them far too fast, and a voicemail arrives on a bad line. She answers every call live. Turn your sound on.

  2. 2
    Online group class, Ocean Vision, level B1+

    Feedback on student presentations

    After a presentation session, each sentence from the class recording gets its own note: why it works, a more natural way to say it, or a quick grammar fix. Students tap their sentences to see the feedback.

    The deck I prepared for the first session with a new group, built to get everyone speaking English from the start.

    The center I founded

    The website for my own education center: English, ICDL and Excel courses, with online applications and a free level test. The site is in Arabic.
