Philosophy

CALES is devoted exclusively to teaching Arabic. We believe that by specializing we are better able to understand and respond to the needs of our students.

Lessons are based on an integrated approach to language teaching using  communicative and natural learning methods predominate. We rely on linguistic specialists and the latest research when developing our curricula and materials, and we keep all elements under constant review.

While all language skills are promoted, our teaching gives priority to spoken Arabic. We expect students to be able to speak simple Arabic after only one or two lessons and from day one you will be communicating with you teacher and classmates in Arabic.

To help you reach the required level of fluency and comprehension, audio-visual aids and computer-based learning support our courses.

Although active communication is heavily encouraged at all teaching levels, we do take into consideration the individual needs of every student, and vary our teaching methods and focus accordingly. More advanced students may request specific areas of study e.g. Qur ’anic study, literature or business Arabic.
