Arabic lessons built around your own goal

Some students want to understand the Quran in its own language. Others want to talk with family, travel, or use Arabic at work. In a 1-on-1 class the teacher plans every lesson around the reason you are learning.

All our teachers are native Arabic speakers and Al-Azhar graduates, trained to teach students who did not grow up with Arabic. They explain in clear English, speak slowly at first, and add more Arabic as you are ready.

You learn the four skills together: reading, writing, listening and speaking, with grammar taught through real sentences rather than long lists of rules.
