Kalamna
We play, laugh and learn in our classes, so children develop a love for Arabic language and culture.
University of Oxford
Arabic is a diglossic language meaning there’s a clear distinction between the spoken and written form of the language. To address this, we’ve found that the best way to learn Standard Arabic is by learning spoken Arabic first.
Once we master everyday conversational language, we can make the bridge to reading and writing formally in Standard Arabic. We have developed our own curriculum to do this based on current research and teaching methodology.
