The Learn Shami Arabic or Modern Standard Arabic in Palestine Program offers a valuable opportunity for individuals who wish to study either Levantine Arabic (Shami / Ammiya) or Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) while practicing the language with native speakers in Palestine. Shami Arabic is spoken by nearly 42 million people across Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. It is one of the most widely understood Arabic dialects, making it easy to communicate with people from the Gulf region as well as North African countries such as Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco. Learning Shami Arabic allows learners to communicate naturally in daily life and social settings. Modern Standard Arabic, on the other hand, is the formal and official form of Arabic used in media, education, literature, and official communication throughout the Arab world. Studying MSA provides a strong linguistic foundation and enables learners to read, write, and understand Arabic in academic and professional contexts.

Learn French, Classic Arabic, or Darija (Western North African dialectal Arabic) in Tangier! All classes are one-to-one with an experienced language teacher who can tailor her teaching to your needs and skill level. If you are two to three students with a similar level, you can also attend the lessons as a small group. There is flexibility in the number of hours you can take per week (5-20 hours/week), so you can do this part-time (while doing volunteer work or an internship that we can also arrange) or intensively. You will also get some homework, so we do not recommend more than 20 hours of tuition per week (Monday to Saturday). Our rates are very competitive. The costs for French language lessons and living expenses in Morocco are significantly lower than in France, making it a fun and interesting travel destination to explore.
