About Me

CURRENT MISSION : Hosting volunteers from all over the world

ABOUT ME

My name is Harim and I'm the director of the British Language Academy in Morocco. My dream,when I was a child, was to meet some English native speakers to get the opportunity to practise my English. But ,as a child coming from a poor family, I never had this opportunity
Now I want that dream to come true for all the students who come to my schools

I'm very funny, helpful, nice, generous, thoughtful and hospitable.

PHILOSOPHY

Small homes but big hearts

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Our schools in Casablanca,Berrechid and El Jadida welcome you to Morocco! In our schools we ask you, our guests, to simply have short conversations with our students. We host native or fluent speakers of English in all our schools and French speakers only in Berrechid and El Jadida to give the opportunity to our learners to be in a comfortable environment to practice and build their confidence in speaking.

We host native or fluent speakers of English or French to give our learners a chance to explore a comfortable environment to practice and build their confidence in speaking.
