Learning arabic in a friendly and professional environment
Study Programme
Regular Programme:-
Our regular programme utilises the popular 'Arabiyya Bayna Yadayk' series through 9 levels of study which acts as a solid foundation for a student in his or her first year of intensive Arabic study. The course builds reading, writing, listening and speaking skills in a step by step process and the student with the aid of instruction naturally progresses from level to level.
The series consists of three books each consisting of 16 chapters covering various topics and rules of grammar in an easy and gradual manner. For example, as the course progresses the carefully selected and prepared texts become more advanced so that by the end of the course the student is very competent in the understanding of advanced Arabic reading texts.
'Arabiyya Bayna Yadayk' is the most comprehensive curriculum in the Arabic foreign teaching field and is now utilised in most prominent Arabic centres in Cairo. Markaz Furqaan has an advantage over other centres however due to the presence of Ustaadh Majdi Saeed who is head of the Arabic department. He co-ordinates and instructs both students and teachers alike so that the best results are achieved. Ustaadh Majdi was of the original teachers of the 'Arabiyya Bayna Yadayk' series in Egypt and has since over the last 5 years developed a high reputation for his knowledge and teaching skills.
Each group class level consists of 60 hours of class time and exams are completed at the end of this in order to progress to the next level.
All classes are segregated amongst students and teaching staff.
