Hello and welcome!

أهلاً و سهلاً

My name is Dora May, also known as Ms. Dora by my students, and I’m the founder of Arabic Start.

Arabic Start was created to support children learning Arabic reading and comprehension in a clear, structured, and enjoyable way. I create digital worksheets, printable, and reading booklets designed especially for beginners and young learners.

Alongside publishing Arabic reading resources, I also teach Arabic reading to non-native speakers. With over 5 years of teaching experience and 100+ five-star reviews, my focus has always been on making Arabic literacy simple, accessible, and confidence-building for children.

Our printed reading booklets guide learners step by step, while our digital worksheets offer instant, practical practice for both parents and teachers.

Thank you for visiting Arabic Start. I hope you and your little learners enjoy these resources as much as I enjoy creating them — one letter, word, and story at a time.

If you’d like to follow my teaching journey and get more Arabic learning tips, you can find me on Facebook at Ms. Dora May.
