the nile, the pyramids

the kindness of the staff

we had the opportunity to talk a lot in standard arabic

-The hospitality of the staff. -The rythm, quality and intensity of the course.

The book that the school offers for 30 Eur.

nice building with aircondition, friendly staff, you can choose yourself on which grammar you want to focus

The organisation was very good. The people from the school helped where they could, and they could always. The apartment was very big and so was my room. They always managed to give me more than I expected. Another good thing is, that you can go to the internet in school, whenever you want.They give you a cellphone with a prepaid card so anyone can call you and you feel less lost (and safer) in that big city

the people

see everything but watch out for scammers

the very nice authentic people

The warm welcome by the school's director, Hatem

Staying in the available apartments in an ordinary Cairo neighborhood was a real treat

very good support in every situation

friendly and helpful employees, good offerings for freetime

little snacks in the morning

sightseeingtrips offered by school

Staff takes so much care for the students, helps organising private trips through Egypt and students can always count on them, day and night.

the courses

I liked the teachers, the fact that they speak english and also german, and the little breakfast after the first break was great

my teacher and the lessons

All the staff was very friendly

Try to be a local instead of just a tourist (for example in ((modest)) clothing): you'll show more respect that me, you'll be more respected yourself, and you'll meet not just annoying tourguides but mainly lovely Egyptians!

Good location (though it seems to be far out of the city centre), good quality of teaching and as i said a helpful & friendly staff. They even surprised me with a birthday party!

eat and drink and smoke in the small cafeterias in the living area

the teacher was very good

the pyramids

very good teachers

A bit far from down town

The care taken for the students

Accueil très chaleureux, ambiance familiale et très accessible ainsi qu

Je ne pensais pas autant apprendre en si peu de temps, la qualité professionnel des enseignants

extremely friendly and helpful staff

small classes, the organisation is very good

Come to Egypt for a longer stay so you have enough time to explore this amazing country, beside all the things you visit in Cairo of course.

Everybody at school is very friendly and they do everything for you to make it comfortable for you and you will enjoy your stay.

The atmosphere and the friendly people

The level of instruction was excellent

Make full use of tape and book together

The Centre`s location outside of the tourist areas makes it an ideal place to get in contact with locals. Students should make use of local people`s friendliness as an aid to practice theirs listening language skills.

The people working at the school were all very kind and always gave advice and help when needed.

international meeting point of extraordinary quality

I made a quite pleasant experience with taking the minibus to the Metro station. "Taxi" is often the only English word taxi drivers know and they do not have any knowledge/imagination of a street map. Although the school/apartment is very close to the President's palace one should think, taxi drivers would recognize the place on a map! But instead they try to read the name of the street in Western letters.

The Arabic Language Center is a small but a very fine school where you'd like to go to. Organization and teaching meet international standards in an African city. As a real beginner for the Arabic language you should be aware that you have to practice a lot at home. What I particularly liked very much was the internationality of the students which was maybe due to the starting date of the course: 24.12.04: German, Swiss, Italian, American/Iranian, Portuguese, Pakistani and Japanese. Being in an apartment with 3 other women we spoke all together 9 languages. I personally speak fluently English, French + Italien; Arabic is my 4th foreign language. Leisure organised by the school depend on the interest of the students.
