Do I need any Arabic to start?
No. Every book is built for complete beginners, and every phrase is written in Arabic script, English letters and English.
Do you teach the Arabic alphabet?
Yes. Every phrase in the books is written in Arabic script beside the English letters, so you can learn to read it as you go, and private lessons can start at Pre-A1, a level devoted to the letters and reading.
Is it a PDF or a printed book?
An instant PDF download that reads on your phone, tablet or computer — and you can print it. The native audio for Book 1 and Book 2 is included in the price.
Which dialect will I learn?
The everyday Saudi Arabic spoken in Riyadh and central Saudi Arabia — the most widely understood dialect in the country.
Books, pocket guides or the course?
The beginner books are the full structured path; the pocket guides cover one situation each; the A1 video course teaches the same path on video with a certificate.
Can I get a refund?
