Arabic classes for adults (see below for classes for children)
Welcome to our small, friendly classes that focus on Palestinian dialect. Our classes have been going for years and the feedback is very good. The classes support the charity CADFA - find out more at CADFA.org
Since Covid, our main classes for adults have been going very well online and this continues. In past years we have had an Arabic residential and/ or a summer intensive course - this year's extra programme will be confirmed later in the year.
