The method breaks down the language into building blocks that are introduced sequentially in such a way that you create your response and move on to ever-more-complex sentences. There is no need to stop for homework, additional exercises or vocabulary memorization, so you progress rapidly. What's in the Course?

Review: but this aid is absolutely amazing. True to its signature claim of effortless learning - Arabic is notoriously difficult to learn, but this aid is absolutely amazing. True to its signature claim of effortless learning, the teachers take you through a method that allows you to quickly embrace word structures and start to build simple sentences. Forget the tables that you need to memorise (the never ending structures that destroy you!) instead, learn to speak the language first which will then pave the way to pick up the intense grammar later on with greater ease. This is a must buy for all those out there that wish to learn arabic. I can't wait to buy the next level when its released in 2018. Review: it is ok - it's ok but there is too much English and too few Arabic. at the end I had a British accent of one of the authors in my ears - not the Arabic accent. Why didn't you let speak more the Arabic mother speaker? moreover, much of that metalinguistic stuff ("corners", "window" where to throw out things, "Samira door", "flowers" instead of persons, etc.) are just wasted time and useless. why do you need a Samira door to say that an adjective has a different form in the feminine? this is what happens in most languages of the world, ex. French. showing this as a strange thing is a typical Anglocentric attitude. I wanted to have more Arabic stuff explained per se, without "flowers". Other thing: the male student is completely inapt for languages and makes too many mistakes, for ex. he can never remember to add the question word "hal" before yes/no questions, he cannot even repeat the words he hear! if one is doing always so many mistake, at the end the mistake remains in our ears more than the correct form! that is frustrating for the hearer. who has chosen this student?
