Arabeya Association

The Arabeya Association is one of the finest language learning programs that exist in the Middle East for the purpose of learning Arabic as a foreign language. Located in Cairo, Egypt, our institute offers students from around the world the opportunity to learn Arabic as a foreign language while immersing themselves in the culture and history of both modern and ancient Egypt. We specialize in small classroom sizes, with a typical student to teacher ratio of 1 to 1 or 2 to 1 – allowing our students to maximize their language learning effort.


The Location 

We have several locations throughout Cairo, Egypt.
Our main branch is located in Tahreer Square, Downtown, the epicenter of city life and the heart of the January 25th Egyptian Revolution.  This area is absolutely saturated with shops, cafés, schools, restaurants, and hundreds of tourist attractions. If you’re one that is attracted to a fast paced, city life, our branch in Tahreer Square is a perfect choice. Our second branch is located in Talaat Harb Square, an area very close to Tahreer Square but a bit quieter. The square is routinely described as a shopper’s heaven, with many clothing outlets and bookstores. Our third location, located in Mohandesin, offers a change of pace from the hustle and bustle of downtown Cairo. Mohandesin is considered an upper-middle class area just outside of Cairo, and features a plethora of embassies, shops, and cinemas.  Students studying at our third branch live less than a 5 minute walk from our school.

Our Programs

We offer a variety of language learning programs that are designed to meet your specific needs in learning the Arabic language. Our “Regular Program” is best suited for small groups, ranging from 3 to 6 students. Classes are 3 hours a day, five days a week, totaling 60 hours monthly. Free airport shuttle and a reduction in accommodation fees are provided. Our “One to One Program” is designed for students who desire a very challenging, intensive, high speed course in Arabic studies; or, who simply want to work at their own pace with the direct attention and assistance offered by one to one tutoring. Our “Online Program” allows students to learn the Arabic language from the comfort of their own home. Instruction is very flexible, fully interactive, and periodically reviewed. We also offer special summer and winter programs, programs in Arabic Calligraphy,and Arabic for Specific Purposes (ASP), a program designed to help students of Arabic hone their skills in specific areas of interest.
Accommodation

We have two student residences in Cairo, Egypt. One residence is located in the Doqqi district of Cairo. Specifically, this residence is located on the Giza side of the Nile, between downtown Cairo and the Pyramids. Located beside the metro station, the Doqqi residence is not more than a 7 minute walk to our branch in Tahreer Square. Our second residence is located in the Mohandesin district of Cairo, just north of Doqqi. This residence is located less than a five minute walk to our language school. All student residences are fully furnished and equipped with the essentials for life in Cairo.
The Teachers at Arabeya

Every member of our faculty is a university educated, fluent speaker of English. Many of them have graduated from Egypt’s most prestigious institutions, including Ein Shams University, Cairo University, and Al-Azhar University, and hold degrees in Arabic Language and Simultaneous Translation. If English isn’t your first language, don’t worry! Many of our teachers speak a third language, usually French, German, or Spanish.
Additional Services

We provide a variety of services to our students, many of which are included in the regular price of tuition. These services include shuttle to/from the airport, telephone rental, taxi services, and kitchen services during class (sodas, teas, and coffees).
