Learn Arabic exclusively by songs! This unique method combines music and song with the structuralist approach to language-teaching developed by the author at Georgetown University, whereby the basic patterns of a language are carefully graded from the simple to the more complex, using a limited but very well-selected number of lexical items and forms.

The most characteristic feature of the method is that the tunes and songs do not, as in some other language programs, form just a supplementary element with only a marginal connection to the course. On the contrary, they form the backbone of this course, around which all its other elements are arranged, thus making the whole process a matter of fun and pleasure.

Classical Arabic is no longer the spoken language anywhere in the Arab world. Thanks to Egyptian movies, television, radio, theater and songs, Egyptian Arabic is the only form of spoken Arabic understood everywhere in the Arab world.

This course is ideally suited to the needs of tourists in any Arab country, all students of Arabic, non-Arabic speaking Muslims and English speakers of Arab descent.
