our Programs
We teach Modern Standard Arabic as well as Gulf Dialect to non-native Arabic speakers from around the world through immersive programs, annual intensives, private lessons, and/or online study.
Programs for learning Modern Standard Arabic are widely available, but very few of these programs teach local dialects, and even fewer of them teach Gulf dialects. We do both! Consider the options below to see which one might be right for you.
Study Options

Four Semester Program:
Consisting of four in-person semesters, this option is designed to take students with no Arabic experience whatsoever and grow them into comfortable, capable communicators. It is an immersive program that begins in Arabic on day one and has produced countless Arabic speakers. Typically requiring 2 years to complete, this program covers reading, writing, and speaking in both Gulf Dialect and Modern Standard Arabic.
There are no prerequisites for students beginning in semester one. Students with Arabic experience may begin in a class other than class one. In order to do so they will be required to complete a placement test to be assessed by the teachers of My Language Institute.
