“I learned so many new things in a very short time and, thanks to the motivation of the teacher and the other students, I finally dared to apply what I had learned. The school welcomed me so warmly that I felt at home from day one. The activities in the afternoon were informative, fun and experiences for life. I learned a lot about the language, the country and myself and would recommend the school to anyone who wants an adventure and a trip that will teach you a lot for life. The teachers made it easy to arrive and learn. All in all, it was a wonderful time!”
Review details
Quality of teaching / language progress: Super interesting lessons.
Other comments It was nice to meet and get to know so many different, exciting characters. It is a place of knowledge and gathering of interesting people. A wonderful place to learn and discover new things. But also a very interestingly designed class with lots of laughter.

“I really liked everything. Everyone is very friendly and helpful ... all the time. The side offers (included in the price), such as excursions and conversation are interesting and also updated regularly, so I was really curious to see what would be offered the coming week. The option to use computers and copiers at no extra cost was something I did not know from other schools. I will definitely go there again. And also: great location of the school right in the city center.”
Insider tip: “If you like the beach, you could opt for an accommodation directly in Martil. By group taxi, it's only more 10 minutes and it doesn't cost much more (either way, 5 dhr). In low season, there are are well-priced options (also via airbnb).”
Review details
Other comments During the long journey from my accommodation I always had some difficulties during the "dip at lunchtime" - when you cannot get home and you get tired. Even for that it was possible to lay down on the floor of a classroom with a blanket. That says a lot about the school.

“The atmosphere is very informal. The people who work there are extremely friendly. The headmaster, Zayd, is incredibly helpful and takes the time to clarify things. In my case, it was the shared taxi transfer from Cabo Negro to the school and back, which apparently only locals can understand. But if you know how it works and where the stops are, it's easy to get to school. I would like to come back again to attend a more advanced course :)”
Disliked
“I cannot and would not like to complain. Overall, everything was very satisfactory. ”
Review details
Quality of teaching / language progress: At school, I spent a week learning the local dialect and gaining some initial insights. You don't need to expect to be a pro after one week as a beginner. That's why I'm planning to do a more advanced course at a later date.

Insider tip: “If you choose Standard Arabic course, be prepared that people do not speak it in Morocco. Here they mainly use the local dialect of Darij, not everyone understands standard Arabic.”

Quality of teaching / language progress: The school uses a very effective methodology, thanks to which you can learn a lot in the class, even homework is not needed.

Disliked
“Some of the course materials were faulty and poor copies. However, because I had my own documents with me, this was not so relevant for me. It was sometimes a bit noisy because the classroom doors were open or the noise came from the street when the windows were open. The digital equipment (projector or decent speakers for listening comprehension tasks) could be improved. Tétouan is probably a bit more expensive in summer due to the many tourists, especially from Spain, so the food prices were like in Europe. Instead, we explored the beautiful beaches and places in the area (Chefchaouen, Mdiq, Septa, Capo Negro, Belyounch, Fnideq, Tangier, Martil) with a rental car. ”

Other comments The only disadvantage of Tetouan Apartments and school: it is very very noisy by the road and due to the central location. Not recommendable for people sensitive to noise. On the other hand the central location allows single women to move around in the center and to get home alone during night as well.

Questions and answers about Dar Loughat - Cross-Cultural Language Center

  • “Most countries are exempted from the visa formality. See list online. If your country is on the list, you will get a "visa waiver" when you enter Morocco. This is nothing more than a stamp in your passport as you pass customs. There is no cost involved. The visa waiver allows you to stay in Morocco as a visitor for 90 days. For those staying over that period, a stay extension will be required. Please, note that your passport must be valid until at least the day you leave Morocco.”
    Lisa Lebret, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 24, 2022
  • “Normally, courses start Monday morning, so plan to arrive on the weekend before. When departing, our courses finish on Fridays; so plan to fly out on a Saturday. Any extra accommodation nights will be charged.

    ”
    Lisa Lebret, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 24, 2022
  • “In most cases it’s not a problem. However, if you arrive a day late, you will miss out on your first lessons and the welcoming presentation.”
    Lisa Lebret, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 24, 2022

  • “Dar Loughat closes only during two major religious holidays, which are Eid Al-Fitr (2 days following the end of the holy month of Ramadan) and Eid Al-Ad´haa (the feast of Sacrifice). All the classes missed during these days will be made up.”
    Lisa Lebret, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 24, 2022

    Lisa Lebret, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 24, 2022
  • “We believe the longer you are able to study, the better. Most students can expect to develop moderate fluency in 2-5 months depending on several factors (atmosphere, accommodation choice, personal motivation and number of lessons). Additionally, the longer you study, the less money you pay for your courses. For more information on our discounts system, see the program costs section.”
    Lisa Lebret, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 24, 2022
  • “You should plan to arrive at 8:30 am on your first day. You will be asked to take a language placement test, unless you are a complete beginner. The test will take about 30 minutes; the Head of the Arabic department will evaluate your language level and will place you in the appropriate class. Immediately after, there will be an orientation session where you will be given the classes schedule and the programme of activities for the week.”
    Lisa Lebret, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 24, 2022

    Lisa Lebret, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 24, 2022
  • “We believe that teaching a language cannot be successful solely by routine and repetition but should be creative and communicative. Our students learn very fast in our classrooms, which are highly communicative and student-centered. In addition to the official textbooks, our instructors use a wide variety of educational material such as local newspaper articles, videos, songs and popular Moroccan tales.”
    Lisa Lebret, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 24, 2022
