Hi there, I`m studying Arabic and wanted to know if there was anybody who could help me with some advice on how this beautiful language is learned and teached in Dubai, or anywhere in the world.
Is there a certain method that is used there with more chances of success?
grammar is taught alongside with exercices?is there any book you would reccomend, keep in mind i have been learning arabic for 2 years by now (but still don`t speak it very well), in your advices .
thank you very much,
mike

Hi Mike,
There is one official program that I know of that teaches Arabic near the UAE. That is the GAP school. It recently moved into Oman across the border from Al Ain, but word on the street is that you can pass into the UAE fairly easily. It is about 2 hours from Abu Dhabi and 4 from Dubai. Other programs can be found on the IIE website and Studyabroad.com. I work for none of those, by the way.

thanks a lot, but the problem is that i don`t live there,in the uae, so...we`ll have to do with what we have here locally.
cheers
I guess you could write to the Embassies of the Arab countries in Bucharest (I see in your profile you're Romanian, so I mention your capital) - Kuwait, Egypt, Syria, UAE (if it has an Embassy there) - write to everyone and they will surely send you some materials for free. I am sure there must at least one Arab school in Bucharest, where they teach the children of the Arab diplomats, Find it in Google. They can help you.
Actually, I just found it for you :)

Hi Keinome,
I have been studying the Arabic language through the Roseta Stone program. Although, learning through this program can be challenging because it is presented entirely in the target language, repetition of proper lexicons ensure that this challenge is overcome. I study daily and look forward to interacting with the lessons.
Roseta Stone provides free samples. You may "google" the company's website for more information.
