Our Level 1B course focuses on Arabic reading and writing. Learn about the Arabic alphabet, the use of vowels in the Arabic language, as well as how to form sentences.
The first part of this course will concentrate on being able to read the Arabic language providing you with a solid foundation for learning how to write the Arabic language. Once we understand how to read, we will learn how to join letters into words and write sentences in Arabic.
The lessons are structured to be interactive, informal, and practical, giving you a good understanding of the Arabic language and culture in everyday life.
