WHO WE ARE
Dar Loughat Granada is a perfect option for people looking for an intensive Arabic course with optimum results. Beginning, intermediate or advanced courses start Mondays regularly throughout the year with flexible schedules. We also organise regular study trips to Tetouan, Morocco, so our students can practice on the ground what they have learnt in class.
Our cultural program "The Andalusian Way", a unique continuation of 800 years of Arab, Christian and Jews living successfully together in Granada, adds an extra dimension.
WHERE WE ARE
The school is located in the predominantly Arabic speaking Albayzin. Students experience everyday situations, speak with the locals; buy in the market (Suk), shop for food and enjoy the relaxing tea shops. This is the Andalusian neighborhood where people speak, breathe, live Arabic and where they welcome our students to stay with families and practice the language in all its complexity.
WHAT WE DO
Our programs are unique and in-depth:
* Practice Arabic with locals on a daily basis.
* Live with Arab families and practice the language in the home.
* Benefit from live classes in the Suk (Andalusian market).
* Enjoy the friendly atmosphere of Granada while discovering Arab culture within its Andalusian context.
* An incomparable experience of further travel to an Arab country.
PROGRAM STRUCTURE:
Our Arabic program consists of three levels of studies; each level is divided into three successive and progressive sublevels.
Aware of the supreme importance of having students understand and adjust to different voice pitches and writings, we have made it our policy to assign a different teacher to a class at each level or more.
This method allows students to study with different teachers and comprehend the subtle nuances of the Arabic language.
Our cultural program, "The Andalusian Way" is a unique continuation of 800 years of successful Arab, Christian, and Jewish co-habitation.
GUARANTEES
After more than 10 years educating students from major universities such as Oxford & Cambridge, Berkeley, CA, Paris, Milan or Complutense, we have developed our own method with excellent results. Check their testimonies on our website, on Youtube or other social networks and learn about their own experiences firsthand.Our goal is to teach this language in a natural way, based on direct communication, and immersion in the arab culture.
