Arabic is her third language. Built Aiwa Amiya to make spoken Arabic practical and fun.
Our story
Hi, I'm Yulia.
Aiwa Amiya (أيوا عامية) teaches real spoken Levantine Arabic through short, self-paced video lessons from Amman, Jordan.
I moved to Jordan four years ago to learn Arabic. It's my third language, and Aiwa Amiya came from wanting a calmer, more practical way to begin.
Read Yulia's full founder note
I moved to Jordan four years ago, and during my first year I went to an Arabic school to learn the basics. Since then, I've kept improving by talking to people and using the language in everyday life.
Arabic is the third language I've learned, and I've realized it doesn't have to be difficult — it can actually be fun, especially when you focus on what really matters: communication.
Our aim is simple: to help you start speaking Arabic before you even arrive. We focus on short videos, clear explanations, and easy-to-follow lessons that you can actually use in real conversations. No overwhelm, just practical Arabic you'll remember and enjoy using.
Besides Jordan, I've already used Levantine Arabic while traveling to Palestine, Syria, and even Saudi Arabia, and I'm looking forward to many more places where I can connect with people through the language.
We're glad you're here and excited to be part of your journey.
With love,
Aiwa Amiya Team
