Study Abroad testimonials
I enjoyed studying at studio Arabiya. Everyone there was extremely professional and the living space was clean. The apartment had all the necessary amenities and even provided free drinking water, a washing machine and dishes. There was no need to bring anything and the area was safe for me as a young woman. This made the entire experience of studying in Egypt so much easier. I had a great roomate and the most amazing teacher that went out of her way to make sure that I understood the lesson. My Arabic teacher was truly passionate about teaching the Arabic language and had years of experience. I would recommend this program for anyone going to Egypt tor study Arabic.
My experience at this institute has been great. I’ve learned a lot since coming to Egypt to learn the Arabic language. Ustadh Mahmoud is an amazing teacher and knows how to teach the language. Since arriving at the institute less than 3 months ago, my understanding has accelerated by studying the language in a place where its primary language is Arabic. Unlike studying in America, where I was going to class two days a week at a very slow pace and the method of learning was through English, here you learn through Arabic in Arabic which causes you to understand Arabic the way it was meant to be understood. I recommend this markaz to any serious students who wants to go abroad to learn the Arabic language.
