Arabic is spoken by more than 250 million native speakers and it is ranked 5th worldwide. Also it is one of the official languages spoken in the United Nations. Levantine dialect is spoken in the Middle East and it is understood by all other dialects. Besides, it is the closest dialect to the academic standard Arabic. If you learn Levantine, standard academic Arabic will be a peace of cake. In my classes i focus on teaching the students how to speak first. Through using the Latin alphabet as a tool. Along the way, starting from the first lesson, I teach the alphabet and start building a solid grammar foundation through easy and fast method. Now if you are a native Turkish, Arabic is already a peace of cake. Moreover, if you speak English, still you are lucky, Levantine dialect uses a lot of words that comes originally from English, French, Italian and Spanish. They say it takes 10 years to learn Arabic, and that's true if you wanna become a a poet, if that's the case then as a native I must be honest, you will never finish learning. But if you want to travel to Arab countries, read newspapers, talk to your Arab friends or finish your research about Arabic culture then I can make you speak in 3 months and you will become and intermediate in Academic Arabic in one year and a half. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or if you just wanna talk about Arabic language and culture. Salam.
