About Mrboukhanaonline
Welcome — I'm glad you're here.
I've been teaching English in Moroccan high schools since 1992, working with Common Core, 1st year Bac, and 2nd year Bac students using textbooks like Ticket to English and Visa to the World, alongside my own handouts developed over more than three decades in the classroom.
This blog started as a way to share what I've learned from thousands of hours of teaching — practical lesson plans, grammar explanations that actually make sense to Arabic and French-speaking learners, exam preparation tips, and teaching methods that go beyond memorization.
Who this blog is for
- Teachers looking for ready-to-use lesson plans, teaching methods (like the Direct Method or the OHEE approach), and classroom strategies
- Students preparing for exams, working on essay writing, or trying to fix common grammar mistakes
- Anyone learning English, whether you're just starting out or polishing advanced skills
My teaching philosophy
After 30+ years in the classroom, I've learned that English isn't hard — it's just different. Most mistakes students make aren't about ability, they're about how Arabic and French quietly shape the way we think about grammar and sentence structure. Once you see the pattern, you can fix it. That's the approach I bring to every post here: practical, clear, and rooted in real classroom experience — not just theory.
Thank you for visiting, and I hope you find something here that helps you teach — or learn — a little better today.
