Arabeya Language Center's Mission Statement

Arabeya Language School was established in 2003 with the purpose of providing small-group, intensive Arabic courses for all levels of Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and Egyptian Colloquial Arabic (ECA). In the effort to provide the ideal learning environment, we emphasize small group classes of no more than four students. In our experience, this more intimate classroom situation has proven to be optimal for language education. Our pedagogical approach provides the instructor and student the opportunity to develop a relationship that is uniquely beneficial for the acquisition of Arabic.
