  • Teachers with experience teaching children.
  • Teachers with strong Qu’ranic / Islamic knowledge.
  • Optional: Immersion based approach (no foreign language – all instruction done in Arabic). We have some very strong teachers in this category who can help you take the hard (but extremely effective) route of learning Arabic through Arabic through special techniques / images / role play etc. These teachers are also typically very strong in Classical / Qu’ranic Arabic and grammar.
