Its given me more confidence in Arabic and more knowledge on cultural topics in Egypt.

Speaking lessons, feedback on written work, fast responses to emails. All in all, Arab Academy offers great student support.
What would you tell someone who is interested in learning Arabic, but hasn’t yet tried it out?
It would definitely tell them to try the online program / visit Arab Academy in Cairo.
