Did you know?

Arabic is one of the six official languages of the United Nations. The UN's Arabic language day is December 18th.

Ahlan wa-sahlan! Originating in Saudi Arabia more than 1,500 years ago, Arabic spread rapidly across the Middle East. The language is today spoken as a mother tongue by between 250 and 400 million people across more than 26 countries worldwide, from Morocco to Iraq and as far south as Somalia and the Sudan. There are many regional dialects, with the Egyptian dialect being the most popular and most widely recognized.

Rewardingly guttural, Arabic has a fearsome reputation for challenging pronunciation. It is worth noting, however, that more than two-thirds of the sounds in Arabic exist in the English language.

Your best choice to learn Arabic online is the Beverly Hills Lingual Institute. Our faculty and courses are proven, effective, and extremely popular with residents of the Los Angeles area.

The best part about living in Los Angeles is...

Diversity and the multicultural environment. Also, the weather promotes productivity and creativity.

Recommend a place to visit where Arabic is the native language, and tell us why you like it.

I highly recommend a visit to Egypt, where past and present co-exist. A Nile cruise is a fabulous way to sail through history and the land of pharaohs in modern comfort. Eating Falafel and Mologhia, drinking water from the Nile, is a cultural experience.

What Arabic film or musical artist do you recommend students watch or listen to?

I recommend Elias Rahbani as a musician and Abd-El Halim Hafiz as a phenomenal singer.

What most surprises your students about Arabic?

Arabic is written from right to left and only in cursive.

What one thing would you like your students to know about you?

I have 3 degrees: a medical doctor's degree from Egypt, a Master's degree in educational counseling, and additional teaching credentials.

The best part about living in Los Angeles is...

There are so many different places—from malls to neighborhood stores and restaurants—to enjoy different cultures.

Recommend a place to visit where Arabic is the native language, and tell us why you like it.

I'd definitely recommend visiting Jordan, where you can enjoy seeing Petra, a city carved in rock, and Wadi Rum; as well as the lowest point in the world (the Dead Sea).

What Arabic film or musical artist do you recommend students watch or listen to?

Fairouz and Nancy Ajram are good singers. I shouldn't forget the greatest Arabic singer, Um Kolthum, who sang famous Arabic and Persian poems. Adel Imam is one of the most popular artists, with strong charisma and the talent to play characters which reflect the culture and political situation.

What most surprises your students about Arabic?

Arabic is a very rich language. It has 28 letters, where by six letters connect from the right with the others, and not to each other. 22 of the letters are 'two-way connectors.' Each letter has 4 shapes, depending on its position in the word, and different sounds. By learning Arabic, you'll see into a different world, understand different cultures, and see the world from different viewpoint.

What one thing would you like your students to know about you?

I'm a social person who loves her Arabic language and enjoys teaching it. I have a Ph.D in Business Administration and am a professor at Westcliff University – Irvine. I'm from Jordan, with Palestinian roots.

Private Arabic Classes

We offer semi-private Arabic classes or private Arabic lessons for any level of Arabic.

Some students prefer private lessons instead of a scheduled class, or occasionally take private classes to augment their existing, scheduled group course.

Private classes are more flexible than Group classes. They are tailored to specific learning and scheduling needs. They can be useful if a student's language knowledge is uneven, if a more intensified study program is needed, or if privacy is a concern.

With our large staff of native speakers, we can schedule private lessons in most languages.

Private lessons are available in packages of:

  • 4 classes (80-minutes each)

  • 8 classes (80-minutes each)

  • 12 classes (80-minutes each)

Or, if you are enrolled in a group class, your private lesson can be scheduled individually.

Please write us or call (323) 651-5000 to schedule your private class.

Why Learn Arabic?

Learn [LANGUAGE] in Los Angeles

The Arab region, with its rapidly growing population and GDP of $600 billion annually, provides a huge export market for goods and services. It has much to offer the world market and economy. In order to negotiate and conduct trade effectively, the language and culture of the people must be understood.

Many western nations consider Arabic a language of strategic importance. Yet there is a shortage of employees in the West who are versed in the Arabic language and culture. Those who study Arabic can often find a career in journalism, business and industry, education, finance and banking, and the foreign service and intelligence.

Take the time to learn Arabic and you'll be introduced to fascinating people and cultures the world over. Arab hospitality is truly unique, particularly when you make the effort to speak the language!

Mastering a new language can change your life.

Spending time studying an unfamiliar alphabet, practicing different sounds, and generally striving to master a foreign language like Arabic has been proven to have a positive effect on the learner's mind. Studies show that adults learning new languages stimualte similar brain parts as children learning you speak. You'll find it easier to learn and remember new things, and you'll likely enjoy the ability to hold more things in short-term memory.

Bilingual individuals often demonstrate increased open-mindedness, creativity, and approachability compared to those who speak only one language. Learning a new language extends beyond acquiring linguistic skills; it cultivates new sensibilities and a broadened perspective on the world. Consequently, multilingualism promotes a deeper understanding of diverse cultures and customs, fostering greater acceptance of new ideas.

The Beverly Hills Lingual Institute invites you to learn Arabic at our award-winning school, where we are proud to offer Arabic and more than 35 other languages.

Our language school hires and retains exceptional Arabic teachers, eager to share their knowledge and love for their native land and the Arabic language.

Our attractive location, on-site parking and schedule all combine to facilitate your Arabic courses.

More About Arabic

Arabic is written right-to-left. There are 29 letters in the Arabic alphabet, with no capital letters. All the letters in the alphabet are consonants, with the possible exception of the first letter. Aleph does not have its own sound, but is used to stretch the short A vowel to form the long AA vowel. The eleven vowels are written as separate marks that go on top or underneath these letters.

Writing in Arabic is cursive, which means that most letters have to be connected together to make words. Some letters do not follow this rule, and prefer to stand on their own.

Each letter has four forms, which look very similar to each other. The first is when the letter is written by itself, while the second, third, and fourth are when the letter is placed at the beginning, middle, and end of a word.
