Why us?
Learning Arabic was never easier! Online access to our digital classes through Alsharq Reise allows learning your favorite language from the comfort of your home. We meet once a week to take a closer look at Arabic together, learn about the language's history and alphabet, and guide you smoothly to reading, writing, and speaking one of the most poetic languages known.
What should you expect?
In this course, we will be covering the whole spectrum of linguistic skills you require to set up a solid base for a smooth Arabic learning journey. With the help of the Arabic booklet designed by your teacher, we will learn a wide range of useful skills - from saying hi, introducing ourselves, and asking for directions, to learning about the Arabic Alphabet, glimpsing into the beautiful art of Arabic calligraphy, and writing simple vocabs. We will learn, throughout our trip, how to form useful sentences using basic grammar skills to talk about your daily routine. We’ll have fun learning using in-class activities, videos, and songs (learning love vocabs through songs is a heartwarming addition!)
What are the learning objectives?
At the end of this ten-class course, you will be able to carry out a short conversation discussing your daily routine or asking questions about other people, read simple Arabic text, and enjoy writing with delightful calligraphy. To be more specific:
- Read and write the Arabic Alphabet;
- Pronounce Arabic words using Levantine dialect;
- Express yourself with useful, grammatically-correct sentences and question;
- Greet and introduce yourself, and say goodbye;
- Ask for directions and prices;
- Develop effective listening skills to Arabic content.

Why Levantine?
Learning a language is always about engaging with the community and getting a true sense of what that language represents to locals, and how they interact on a daily basis. That’s why we chose for our course the Levantine dialect, one of the six main varieties of colloquial Arabic spoken across the Arab word, as it is the main vernacular spoken in Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and Jordan. Compared to the Modern Standard Arabic (MSA), used more formally, Levantine dialect is easier to pronounce and understand, widely spoken, and more accessible being adopted by most of the art and cultural movements in the Arab world - we will teach you a language you can use with your friends, not the one required to do your PhD!
