Presentation of the Modern Arabic Method

A Quest for Arabic Language is a 4-volume method (Volume 1, level A1, now available) that fills a unique gap: combining concrete, spoken Arabic practice with an immersion in Arab civilization and literature.

Who is this method for?

Anyone drawn to Arab culture, literature, and civilization — not just for religious reasons. It is suitable for both teachers and self-learners.

A journey through history

Each volume corresponds to a major era in Arab civilization:

• Volume 1 (A1) — Pre-Islamic Arabia: ancient poetry, cities of Arabia, cuisine, the language of the Quran
• Volume 2 — From Medina to Umayyad Damascus: hadith, biographies, history, calligraphy, sciences
• Volume 3 — Abbasid Baghdad: One Thousand and One Nights, Andalusia, literature
• Volume 4 — Ottoman and modern era: contemporary cultural and literary upheavals

A method focused on speaking

The method places strong emphasis on oral expression — the most challenging skill at beginner level. It develops all 4 language skills and draws on online resources: audio files, grammar summaries, interactive PowerPoint files.
