Asmaa Raeedy
مرحبا my name is Asmaa Raeedy, and I go by Sam. I am from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia born and raised. In addition, lived in China for 11 years + 2 debatable years. As a result, I am trilingual. I am a senior majoring in Mathematics and Computer Science (Pre-med). Moreover, I LOVE to travel, and one thing I learned while traveling is that if you want to learn a language, you need to speak it. Speaking with natives is the best way of learning, and that's why I am here to help you improve your Arabic. I learned Chinese by speaking, and you will be able to do the same with Arabic (inshallah). I love sports such as volleyball, basketball, and horse riding maybe we have something in common. I hope to be of a great asset for you this semester.

Victor
Bonjour! I'm Victor, a senior studying Software Engineering at Loyola. I'm from Madagascar where I spoke French as a second language. I decided to come to the US to Loyola for my studies, but also to meet new people and share and learn from them. I am passionate about basketball, electric skateboard, robotics, and anime. I also love going on adventures, and a way for me to do that is to hear other students' stories and interacting with them; this is to say that I would love to help you practice your French in a fun and interactive way!

Julia
Witam! My name is Julia and I am a sophomore at LUC, majoring in Elementary Education and minoring in Polish Studies. I grew up in a Polish-speaking household, with Polish being my first language. Additionally, I attended Polska Szkola im. Sw. Faustyny in Lombard for nine years. The curriculum included Polish culture, history, geography, religion, and language. Interpersonal conversations are a big part of learning the language, and I would love to help you practice those skills! Feel free to come and have a conversation about food, nature, culture, music, fun activities, and more in Polish! My available times are 3:00pm-5:30pm on Mondays and 2:30-4:00pm Tuesdays. If these times do not work for you, I would be more than happy to schedule an appointment with you at another time. Do zobaczenia!

Mary
Привет всем! My name is Mary or Masha (I don't have a preference) and I'm from the Chicagoland burbs. I am Ukrainian and my family is from Kyiv and Donbass; I grew up speaking Russian in a Soviet household. I thought everyone spoke a different language at home until I was about nine years old. I'm really excited to practice with you. I'm a Political Science major with Spanish and Mandarin minors (so trust me, I know how hard language study can be) graduating Fall 2023. I love to talk Russian and Ukrainian politics, but I promise we can stick to the fun stuff too. I have accumulated a lot of very good memes in Russian over the years. Don't hesitate to schedule a meeting with me! Improving your Russian ability is my number one priority. Надеюсь что скоро встретимся!
