Arabic Language: - Level 1: Nouns & Prepositions

 
 
 

Arabic Language is a four-level programme with a single objective: to make students independent readers of Arabic literature. That means students will have the knowledge, confidence and skillset to pick up an Arabic book and read & comprehend the literature by themselves.

Programme Breakdown

Level 1: Nouns & Prepositions
Students will study the most common and practical grammar rules which are essential for reading comprehension.

Level 2: Verbs & Patterns
Students will study the most common word patterns which are essential for vocabulary acquisition.

Level 3: Vocabulary & Sentences
Students will study texts to acquire words that are frequently used in day-to-day communication and across multiple contexts. Additionally, students will study other practical grammar rules not covered in previous levels.

Level 4: Vocabulary & Reading Practice
Students will study texts to acquire words that are frequently used in specific topics. In our case, most of the vocabulary will be related to the Islamic Sciences. Additionally, students will read an entire book in Arabic to consolidate and further their learning. Students will also be trained to navigate through passages containing unfamiliar vocabulary or phrases.
