Arabic Lessons in Peterborough

Don’t let everyday distractions stop you from learning the language you’ve always wanted to know. Sign up for a face-to-face Arabic course with us and start your journey to fluency. Just tell us when you would like to start and we’ll pair you up with one of our native tutors for a personalized in-person course.

The type of courses we offer:

Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) General Arabic

This set of Arabic tutorials are less specific and more targeted for those who want to get a range of different things from learning Arabic. Even though all novice students will cover survival Arabic: as well as Arabic to visit somewhere abroad to make solid contacts with the locals, what do you do from there? It depends on your needs. Those who have benefited from these lessons have been those moving or investing overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people who love to travel all over the world, those interested in Arabic culture and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Arabic.

Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) Business Arabic

These Arabic Lessons are intended for people who really need to learn Arabic to help make that difference in their work. For beginners, it will be useful to learn greetings and basic business etiquette; at higher levels, reading and then writing become more important. Typical students include those involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where an additional language is required, and those working with international colleagues, academia and government. Even in our most basic lesson for Beginners, students should expect to end the lesson with basic telephone Arabic and Arabic e-mail skills for communication as well as survival Arabic required for short visits to a country.

“حبيتك بالصيف” (I Loved You in the Summer)

“I Loved You in the Summer” is a romantic song by one of the most well-known Arab singers from Lebanon, Fayrouz. This song is great for beginners because it uses a lot of basic vocabulary, like the seasons (alsayf is summer, shata’ is winter, rbye is spring and alkharif is autumn). But the song is also useful for advanced levels who want to put their vocabulary to the test and challenge themselves to understand the gist of the song: unrequited love. The singer uses advanced words and expressions to describe her suffering, so keep the lyrics to hand! Click here to listen to this song.

“انت عمرى” (You Are My Life)

“You Are My Life” is, as you may have guessed, a romantic song by an Egyptian singer and songwriter, so it’s a great idea to listen to it to familiarise yourself with different Arabic accents. Some new terms you will hear include your eyes (euyunk), your light (nurik) and my heart (qalbi). In terms of grammar, the song is quite simple because it only includes verbs in the past and the imperative, like forgot (nasit) or gave (aetaa), so listening to the song is a great way to revise your course contents.
