Why families choose Arabic for Kids Online

Everything is built around one idea: a child learns best with a patient teacher, a clear plan and parents who can see the progress.

Native Arabic-speaking teachers

Our teachers hold degrees from Cairo University, Al-Azhar University, the Faculty of Al-Alsun and a College of Arabic Language in Saudi Arabia.

One teacher, one child

Lessons are live and personal. The teacher sets the pace and the practice to your child, not to a class average.

Patient, child-friendly teaching

Parents tell us the same thing again and again: the teachers are patient and explain clearly.

A report after every lesson

You receive a short written summary: what was covered, how your child took part and what to practise.

Safety built into every lesson

Trained and vetted teachers, no private contact outside the platform, and parents may join any lesson.

Times that fit your time zone

We teach families in more than 50 countries and arrange lessons around your school day.

A real curriculum, not random lessons
