ARABIC DEPARTMENT

Welcome to the Arabic department at JPGS.

Arabic is a beautiful and rich language in both its
written and spoken forms. The language is the native
tongue for almost 300 million inhabitants of 22
countries through the Middle East and North Africa.

At JPGS, we teach Arabic to students at a variety of
different levels, from recent arrivals in Saudi Arabia
without any knowledge of the Arabic language,
to those who are confident native speakers who
ultimately perform extremely well in the First
Language Arabic examination. The variety of ability
levels, even within the same class, makes every lesson
interesting and challenging in equal part!

We adopt a highly motivational and individualised
teaching style that makes the language interesting and
relevant to the students, using modern methodologies
with the latest audio and video resources. As far as the
non-Arabic speaking students are concerned, we work
with students on listening skills, using songs, rhymes
and language games. Our development and progress
cannot continue without the enthusiasm of the
students and your invaluable support and cooperation.
