Most recent student reviews of language schools in Alexandria

I give 5 stars to all aspects of my experience at Ahlan.
All the teachers were incredible. I've never come across such high quality teaching. I thought I'd struggle because of dyslexia, but my teacher tailored my lesson to my needs.
All the staff were so friendly and made me feel at home immediately. If I ever needed help, I felt I can ask anything. The classrooms were nice and breezy, considering it was the hottest temperature weather outside. I'll look forward to coming back soon.

Course: Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) - 3 weeks
Student age: 14 years

Friendly and flexible staff
I booked an MSA course plus intensive teaching (3 plus 2 hours). Due to the fact that I was the only student in my level and that I was only staying for two weeks in Egypt, the school offered me private lessons in the afternoon (2 hours MSA and 1.5 hour intensive teaching).
