Student comments about "Intensive Modern Standard Arabic " at Al Minbar Institute
Babette
"As I was the only student, I had private lessons with Mariam and that was great "
Special note for 2025 holiday season: If you plan to take a course during the high season months of April, June, July or August 2025 we urgently advise you to book as early as possible. In 2024 many schools were fully booked during the holidays and the situation is unlikely to be different for 2025 due to a current shortage of teachers, which affects most schools.

“It was a very good experience. The course was very interesting and effective. The student residence was very clean and welcoming. I recommend eating at La Medina, where I ate my best sandwich with fish... The supervisor's work was well done. Many thanks to Madly (LanguageCourse.Net) who accompanied my course very well.
So, the next station is Tokyo!!!”
“The cultural life...the activities...Unfortunately, they didn't offer anything for 3 weeks. And for us (foreigners) it's very interesting to travel a bit and find friends. In any case I spent the time well. ”
