Overview

The Arabiyya Bayna Yadayk (Arabic Between Your Hands) series is among the most widely used Arabic language curricula in the world. Our four-book program takes students from complete beginner — no prior knowledge required — through to strong fluency in reading, writing, listening, and speaking Modern Standard Arabic, with direct application to classical and Qur'anic Arabic. Each book is studied one-to-one with a qualified Arabic teacher, and placement assessments are available for students entering at Book Two or above.
