Registration For Arabic Classes in 2017 - Extended!

Salaam Students and Interested Parties

We have decided to extend registrations for the 2017 Arabic Classes until the end of December 2016.  Late Registrations will be allowed in January if there is still space!  Those who register by 25 December 2016 will be granted an automatic discount.  They will therefore only pay R100 to register, instead of the R150 (Registration Fee).  The course fees are R120 per month for students taking the beginner and intermediate courses.  Those who take the advanced courses will pay R150 per month.  They may also attend the other courses at no extra charge.

The duration of the courses have also been changed.  Two semesters will be offered during 2017.  Students who register now will be registered for the First Semester Courses, i.e. from February to June 2017.  Students will have the option to re-register in July 2017 (at no extra cost) to continue with the rest of the courses.

They Courses on offer include:
1.  Understand the Noble Quran;
2.  Speak Arabic.

The Arabic Gammar Rules will be covered during both courses.  The Understand Al-Quran course will incorporate Quran reading with tajweed.

In order to be considered for registration, please send me an email or WhatsApp Message.  Please include your full name, email address and WhatsApp Number.  Also send a recent photo of yourself.

Speak Arabic ASAP!

Alhamdu lillaah!!
One month has passed and still going strong.  Some people are still inquiring about joining the classes.  We normally allow late registrations up to the end of March, but student who would like to still join need to contact me ASAP via email (idreeskamish@gmail.com) or WhatsApp (0720191949).  I recommend that anyone who still want to join our Beginners or Intermediate classes this year, should do so immediately and not wait any longer.  Once they've contacted me, they can register via email or WhatsApp and start learning immediately, because the notes and audio lessons will be forwarded to them as soon as all information required has been received.  Space is limited, so do not delay, if you want to be able speak Arabic within the next two - three months!

We have covered quite a bit of work thus far and students are expected to revise daily.  Students are also expected to do daily assignments (reading and writing what has been covered).  Reminders and Revision Audios are sent to students regularly (about three or more times per week) to help them to revise, memorize, and improve their understanding.

In addition to the sentences and phrases, we have covered more than 40 verbs (Commands/ Instructions) so far, which is quite unique, since most other classes (traditionally) do very few (if any) verbs during the initial stages.  Knowing Verbs helps the student to understand Arabic much faster, because Arabic is a very structured language - based on a root system.  Since more than 80% of all roots are directly linked to the verb, it helps the student to learn much faster, by having a good understanding of how the roots work in Arabic and learning a large amount of roots as soon as possible.

Speak Arabic and Understand Al-Quran 2016

Alhamdu lillah!
We've had a great response for our 2016 Arabic Classes.  It is evident that more and more people are realizing the importance of studying this beautiful language.  Many students have also listed the Understanding of Al-Quran as their main reason for studying this language.  The students also love they way the classes are conducted, in a fun, interactive way.  I always try my best to simplify any concept I teach, therefore one can truly say Arabic is fun and easy to learn!

Anyone who would like to pursue Arabic studies in future, should ideally first learn to read the Arabic script.  Those prospective future students who would like to improve their Arabic Reading skills in the meanwhile, are welcome to download a copy of the Read Arabic Today ebook, by clicking on the link on the right: http://readarabictoday.blogspot.co.za/p/blog-page.html.

Those who can read, and would still like to join, must please register ASAP by sending me their full name, contact details and a recent photograph via email (idreeskamish@gmail.com) or WhatsApp (0720191949).  Remember we have already started last Sunday.  We will revise this week and continue with our new lesson/s.   

Here are some pics of the new group of students for 2016.  As you can see, there is not much space left for additional students, so if you still want to join - please send me your details ASAP!
