Overview
Our goal is to offer excellent Arabic language courses and equip our students with language skills and a cultural understanding, that will allow them to work and interact smoothly and effectively in an Arab society.
The U-Can Arabic Language Institute is an independent business established 3 years ago. We have taught over 3,000 students from more than 20 different countries. We have taught individuals from the Korean International Co-Operation Agency, British Petroleum (BP) and other international businesses and schools as well as given lessons to American Embassy employees.
U-Can's books and resources are designed in house to give students relevant grammar and phrases they can use right away. As students progress in their language, the lesson books, phrases and grammar help to develop a well rounded ability to converse with Arab speakers in a flexible and comfortable manner.
We offer 12 levels of Amiyya/Egyptian Colloquial Arabic (ECA) courses, which are categorized according to the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) descriptions.
