With the help of my teacher Marwa, I was able to read and comprehend texts and sayings in Palestinian Arabic! She worked on a pace that I was comfortable with and made me feel safe to make mistakes. The material is very well tailored to my language needs and was interesting to unpack. Not to mention the support and communication from both Marwa and Arabanion was excellent. I felt that I was constantly being looked after and held accountable! If I were to recommend this program to a friend I would say simply reach out and inquire. I never felt pressured or forced to start a program and Arabanion created a very friendly and supportive environment for me to learn. Thank you to Marwa and Arabanion ☺️.

With time, I was able to gain confidence to read a text and immediately answer questions about it, something I never thought that I would be able to do! Alhamdulillah! The friendly approach, the personalized style, material and speed of the lessons help a lot in proper learning and retention of the language, as well as keeping it fun and interesting! The team is very professional, friendly and flexible. I would recommend Arabanion to anyone who wants to learn Arabic in a fun, personalized and easy way. You choose your own topics, schedule, focus points - amazing!

I contacted Arabanion because I needed an atypical way to learn Arabic. I am an English-speaking diaspora Palestinian. My Arabic is a mix of multiple dialects (from watching TV & living in a diverse community) and elementary Classical/MSA. I wanted to speak confidently and clearly in 1 dialect. And I wanted to sound relaxed, natural, not so formal! What I got from Arabanion: everyday vocabulary and sentence structure taught by a Palestinian teacher, as requested. My lessons focus on scenarios that I have actually struggled with like getting lost or giving directions, shopping, needing help in unfamiliar situations, and making polite conversation at family occasions. I discovered that I have a bigger vocabulary than I thought. I was just too embarrassed to practice and make those mental connections. So now I have started challenging myself to speak Arabic out loud when the opportunity comes. Strangers have shown me so much warmth and delight in my efforts even when I struggled to find the right words. These moments are what build real-life language learning. I’m excited to keep going. I also want to thank my teacher Tamam. She instantly became a friend and is a lovely person to meet with each week. She is encouraging, speaks clearly, challenges me on different levels, and adjusts her speed when the lesson seems easier or harder in certain spots. Sometimes we just talk about our day; I try to listen and translate what I’ve heard, and in turn respond as best I can. A suuuper hard task that becomes a rich lesson. If you are not sure about Arabanion, I would say give it a go for 1 month. Tell them your needs and honest expectations. They can adjust. I have even tried other students’ customized lessons to gauge my interests and level of knowledge. For me, the downside is that they promise fast improvement, but in reality this can’t be guaranteed without a student’s strong focus and commitment. I have become so busy that my consistency is slipping. But their encouragement persists. And it motivates me not to give up. I am glad to have been paired with my teacher Tamam. Happily recommend Arabanion to other language learners.

My confidence has grown exponentially, and my understanding has developed tremendously. I enjoyed that we could listen to Arabic music and videos so I can hear how conversations are used. That helps my understanding. The support of the Arabanion team is awesome, I can ask them anything and they will always have an answer for me. If I had a friend that wanted to start his/her journey in learning Arabic I would definitely recommend Arabanion, and most of all my tutor Aliaa. She is a great teacher and an awesome person! Thank you, Elias

I have really loved my experience with Arabanion. I have learned so much and I believe I owe that to how the program is set up and the organization in lessons. ARABANION offers flexible schedules and a lot of access to help so I can reach out to my instructors anytime I have questions.

Since starting my Arabic lessons with my lovely teacher Tamam, I’ve definitely become more confident in both speaking and understanding Arabic. I’m still taking lessons, so I continue to learn and improve with every class. What I enjoy most is the one-on-one teaching style. The lessons are personal and adapted to my level and pace. I always feel comfortable asking questions, and we can spend more time on things that I find difficult or want to practise more. I also really like how the learning materials are provided. After each online lesson, I receive the content of the lesson digitally. The lessons always look clear, professional, and visually appealing. It’s very useful to have everything from the lesson available afterwards, so I can easily go back, review what we covered, and practise in my own time. The communication and support are also great. It’s easy to get in touch with Tamam and Arabanion when needed, and I feel well supported both during and outside of the lessons. If a friend was considering learning Arabic with Arabanion, I would definitely recommend it. The combination of one-on-one lessons, personalized learning, and well-prepared materials makes it a very enjoyable way to learn Arabic. And I would especially recommend Tamam as a teacher. She is truly amazing, and I really love learning from her. She makes the lessons enjoyable and creates such a comfortable environment to learn and practise Arabic 🤍

Arabanion lessons are tailor made to your requirements making it very personal according to your needs and goals. The lessons are well structured building on pre existing knowledge step by step. The flexibility also makes the lessons enjoyable!

My teacher Marwa is kind, patient and understanding and goes over each topic in detail to ensure I know vocabulary and how to use it. The scenarios are fun and useful. I am always given the lesson slides after each lesson and the admin do regularly ask for feedback which shows they are continuously looking to improve their program. It will take me some time but I am confident I will be speaking Arabic in a year or two!
