The programs made me get wonderful experiences and improve my Arabic skills. Past Review
By A student (Universitas Gadjah Mada) - abroad from 01/21/2019 to 04/26/2019 with
Qalam Center for Arabic Studies: Rabat - Direct Enrollment & Exchange
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
For me, Qalam wa Lawh is the best school to learn formal Arabic (fusha) and informal Arabic (Darija). The semester program made me feel international atmosphere with more knowladge about Arabic literatarure, politic, Arabic media, etc. The programs are very well organised. The teachers and staffs are very friendly and welcoming. I really enjoyed with extracurricular activities, Arabic language cafe, public lecture, and visiting activity. Thank you very much Qalam wa Lawh to all opportunities. I really recommend for you to choose Qalam wa Lawh to improve your Arabic skills.
