I recently joined LinguaVerna and have completed level one. I was so pleased with the format and teaching style. Bashar was my instructor and he was great at answering all my questions and helping me with my pronunciation making sure I was speaking correctly. I am so excited for level 2!! Thanks, Lindsay

Highly recommend Lingua Verna for learning Arabic! The pace is fast enough to make progress but slow enough not to be overwhelming, the online exercises test different aspects of language use and understanding, and the conversation groups do a great job of getting you to read and speak aloud.

Super helpful for those that grew up around some Arabic but never understood the rules and grammar. I've gone from barely being able to read to having text conversations with friends in Arabic in 10 weeks. Highly recommend for the casual Arabic phrase user who still needs to understand the 'why' behind the phrasing.

The beginner Arabic class is really fantastic! After multiple false starts at trying to learn this beautiful language, I am finally learning to speak Arabic through this class. Highly recommend this program. The instruction is very good and the materials easy to follow and review materials very helpful. I love the weekly conversation class - this makes a big difference! Couldn't be more excited that I am finally gaining confidence in speaking!

I had no previous Arabic experience and the course was laid out very intuitively. It’s very affordable for a language program and the instructors are all very helpful and supportive. I highly recommend if you are interested in learning Arabic.

I did the first level course in Levantine Arabic as part of Buraq's conversation group and really appreciated the curriculum! As part of the course, you begin with the Arabic alphabet which was incredibly helpful with understanding the phonetics. I also appreciate how Lingua Verna highlights regional differences in pronunciation. If you've searched for courses in Levantine Arabic you know how challenging it can be to find live instruction and conversation groups and Lingua Verna offers just that along with great digital materials. Overall would very much recommend the course as I've learned a lot and truly enjoyed the time!

While I enjoy learning languages, I have always struggled with the structure of most classes which focus on grammar, sentence structure, parts of speech, aka the more technical stuff. But Lingua Verna's approach is totally different. With an emphasis on speaking, listening, and comprehension, I'm finding that I'm learning more quickly and it's sticking with me. Grammar is also part of the learning, but it's not the main focus. Taking classes with Lingua Verna is the first time, in a long time, where I have not been frustrated with learning a language. Instead, I'm having fun, enjoying myself, and excited to continue learning and practicing. Would definitely recommend!
