Ahlan means WELCOME, and we do all we can to make sure each student receives a warm and friendly welcome and that their stay is a happy one. Ahlan-Egypt’s hospitality and lively atmosphere makes it a great place to learn Arabic. Our students enjoy the enriching experience of being part of a growing Egyptian-International family, as well as the cultural events we offer. We have a dynamic group of teachers and guides, who in most cases have long standing friendships with former students. The institute is open also in the evening and the teachers often remain after hours to spend time with the students and encourage Arabic conversation outside of the classroom. Evening or weekend cultural activities, workshops on Egyptian cuisine, oriental dance and calligraphy, tours inside Alexandria and to other parts of Egypt (Siwa and other desert oases, Cairo and Rasheed, for example) are very popular and involve both students and staff. Many of our former students come back to visit us, or take further courses. They say they miss the ‘family’ atmosphere and the friends they have made in Egypt. Ahlan Egypt offers several group courses: Modern Standard Arabic (MSA), Egyptian Colloquial Arabic (ECA - dialect), Intensive Modern Standard Arabic, Extra Linguistic Activities in MSA and the Teacher Training Program. The institute organizes also one-to-one Arabic classes in the Institute as well as in your home with Skype. You can have a free on-line test which will be checked by our teachers to determine your level and then start your tailored Skype classes. Moreover, Ahlan-Egypt offers the biggest and best opportunity to learn Arabic for FREE in the world today! No one offers anything quite like our Tandem Program of study. The program has been established in order to build bridges of understanding and allow students from all over the world to experience something they would not otherwise be able to. This is equally important to our talented Egyptian students as it allows them to go places they have only been able to dream about. This specially designed program allows for students from many other countries to participate in an exchange program with Egyptian students. The obvious benefits of a program of this kind are the
wonderful opportunities to build your Arabic language, learn about and experience a new and different culture, as well as providing for the chance to establish life-changing friendships that will last a lifetime. There is no better opportunity for anyone, anywhere to learn how Egyptians live and think as well as experience what they go through on a daily basis from their simple habits to their various routines. Ask us today about how to apply to our Tandem Program and become a part of something special. Ahlan-Egypt is a hard place to leave!
