Welcome to our Level B2-1 Arabic course — an immersive and reflective journey into language, culture, and communication. This course is designed for advanced learners eager to refine their skills and explore the rich tapestry of Arab cultural life through meaningful conversation, critical thinking, and authentic materials.

With the support of a custom-designed booklet and a variety of media — including personal narratives, articles, and audiovisual material — you'll explore themes that bring language learning closer to lived experience. Each session offers opportunities to practice complex grammar structures, expand vocabulary, and fine-tune your speaking and listening skills through nuanced discussion.

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 world, 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.
Who is this course for?
This course is ideal for students who have completed Level B1-4 or have a strong intermediate proficiency in Arabic and wish to engage in deeper, more nuanced discussions about travel, identity, and culture — all while continuing to build confidence and fluency in Levantine Arabic.
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
-
Discuss tourism and cultural exchange from multiple perspectives, including the impact of tourism on local communities.
-
Identify and reflect on cultural misunderstandings between locals and tourists, and describe how language, behavior, and expectations play a role.
-
Talk about the emotional connection between food, childhood memories, and cultural identity using descriptive language and storytelling.
