Conversational Arabic — Elementary

Arabic is usually taught as something to decode. Here it's taught as something to speak — from week two you're saying real (imperfect) sentences out loud. Each 12-week level moves one clear step forward. Classes are short and frequent (30 min, 3×/week) because a language settles in through regular contact, not long occasional sessions.

• Studied grammar for years, still can't order coffee
• Starting from zero, wants a path past the alphabet
• Travelling, working, or living in an Arabic-speaking country
