Hello Moud, and welcome to the EF. When saying that you are a student you need to use "a", otherwise

Hello, Moud, welcome!

Well, you can imagine that being a student is a kind of job, and, in English, when you state your job, you must use "a/n": I'm a teacher/a baker/an engineer, etc...

Hello Moud, and welcome to the EF. When saying that you are a student you need to use "a", otherwise you can go for:

"I am studying (what you are studying)".

No need of "a" there.

Hope this helps. (enjoy the Forum)
