Philologist-arabist Translator Ph.D. of Pedagogical Sciences Founder of the language school Arabirus
I am Elena Demesheva. I have been living and working in Lebanon for many years. I am an Arabic philologist and translator by profession.
I have 30 years of language practice in Arabic and more than 25 years of experience teaching Russian as a foreign language, the Arabic language and the subject of “Translation” at Lebanon’s top universities and language courses.
I graduated with honors from the Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia (RUDN), where I also completed my PhD on methods of teaching Russian as a foreign language to those who speak Arabic.
I developed my own online courses: “The Arabic – Lebanese Dialect” and “A Russian Language Course for Arabic Speakers”.
I am happy not only to be your teacher and share with you my expertise and rich experience in teaching these two languages, but also to be a real coach and reliable guide for you!
