About us
Learn in Arabic, from Arab experts
Skillit is the first place built for learning this way in Arabic, from the people who actually do the work. An expert opens a community, fills it with lessons, assignments and a discussion they answer themselves, and sets their own price. You pay a monthly price for the community you want, shown in full before you join, from anywhere in the Arab world.
What we believe
Six things we will not trade away
They decide what gets built, what gets refused, and how an expert is treated once they are in.
People, not a catalogue
The person teaching is the whole point. Every community is run by somebody who does the work for a living – nothing here is a course bought in and rebadged.
In Arabic, properly
Not translated and not subtitled. The lessons, the assignments and the discussion are written in Arabic by people who think in it.
A question is meant to be answered
Every community has a discussion and the expert is in it. A question left sitting is a fault, not a feature of the cheaper plan.
One price a month, and you can stop
You pay for the community you want, month by month, and you can cancel it from your account. No site-wide membership, no tier to climb, no bundle you did not ask for.
Experts get paid properly
They set their own price and can see exactly what reaches them. A statement every month, paid to their own account, no chasing.
If it is missing, say so
Cannot find the subject you want? Ask for it. That list is the first place we look when we go out to find new experts.
What you get
Everything a community comes with
One monthly price, and all of this is inside it.
A community
A subject, the expert who knows it, and everyone else learning the same thing.
Lessons at your pace
Work through them when it suits you. Nothing expires and nothing locks.
Assignments that mark themselves
Answer, submit, and know where you stand before you have closed the tab.
A discussion that replies
Ask in the open. The expert answers, and so does everyone else who got stuck there.
Progress you can see
Points as you go and a board to put them on, so the work adds up to something.
One clear monthly price
Shown in full on the community page before you join. The same every month, with nothing added afterwards.
What we are here for
Arabic should not mean fewer options
Where it stands
Learn in English and you can pick anyone. In Arabic you get a translation, or nothing at all.
The region is full of people at the top of their field. Almost none of them have anywhere built for them to teach, so the knowledge stays where it is.
What we are doing
Give the expert a place to teach, and give everyone else a real choice.
A place that respects the work and pays for it properly, so teaching in Arabic is worth somebody good doing – and so anyone who speaks it can choose who they learn from.
Where we stand
Counted, not claimed
These come straight out of the site, so they are right the moment you read them.
