Leila Al-Farsi

25 years teaching French in Mecca

  • 🇸🇦 Mecca, Makkah, Saudi Arabia
  • Since 2004
  • English
I came to teaching late, after working as a postal worker, and 22 years later I still can't imagine doing anything else. Outside the classroom I sing in a choir. Inside it, I stay late on Thursdays for anyone who needs it.

More about Leila

If you were in my first-year students class, you probably remember the end-of-term party.

Subjects taught

What gifts mean to Leila: A gift would go toward books and supplies for the students I still tutor.
