Intensive Intermediate Classes (WET)

Prerequisites:

Our Beginner conversation class is a prerequisite. You can also enroll in this course if you are comfortable conjugating in the present, future, and present continuous tenses. The goal of this course is to focus on practicing Arabic speaking with interactive role-plays and consolidate vocabulary for a wide range of topics.

If you feel you’re not quite up to speed, consider signing up for our Levantine Arabic Masterclass. This course is designed to help complete beginners and uses instructional videos, so there is less pressure to be conversationally fluent.

You don’t need to know how to read Arabic to join any of our Arabic conversation classes.

– 10-Minute Conversations: In addition to group sessions, you get 20 private 10-minute conversation sessions with your instructor. These one-on-one sessions are crucial for building confidence and fluency.
– Flexible Scheduling: You can choose to have these sessions twice a week for 10 minutes each or once a week for 20 minutes, depending on your schedule and preference.
