Year-Long Arabic Language Program (October – June)
Our academic-year program is designed for students who wish to develop strong communication skills in both Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and Egyptian Colloquial Arabic (ECA), while also gaining a deep understanding of Arabic culture, literature, and media.
Program Structure
The program consists of two semesters (October to June), totaling 720 instructional hours.
Students attend classes Sunday to Thursday, with 6 hours per day, divided into:
- ECA (Egyptian Colloquial Arabic)
- MSA (Modern Standard Arabic)
- Arabic Grammar
- Media & Journalism
- Arabic Literature
Class sizes are kept small, between 6 to 12 students, to ensure interaction, speaking practice, and personal attention.
Cultural Immersion & Educational Outings
We believe language and culture are inseparable.
Throughout the program, students participate in cultural outings and historical site visits, such as:
- Giza Pyramids & Sphinx
- Old Cairo (Coptic & Islamic Cairo)
- Egyptian Museum
- Local Egyptian food experiences
We also organize extended trips to:
- Luxor & Aswan
- Alexandria
These activities help students practice the language in real-life contexts and enrich their cultural understanding.
Tickets are not included.
