YouTube teachers take center stage at the Algiers International Book Fair

The 2026 Algiers International Book Fair (SILA) transformed into a hub for direct interaction between students and popular educational influencers. Renowned teachers who provide online lessons, including Boubakeur Mabrouk, Mohamed Abou Chaker Laaboudi, and Professor Noureddine, drew large crowds of students to various publishing stands. Beyond taking photos and seeking signatures, students seized the opportunity to ask for academic guidance, particularly regarding the baccalaureate exams. Professor Noureddine held a notable discussion with top-performing student Abdel-Laoui Abdellah, highlighting that academic excellence stems from discipline, consistency, and time management rather than reliance on private tutoring or excessive smartphone use. This unique gathering underscored the deep connection formed between digital educators and their followers, moving from virtual classrooms to real-world engagement.
