Arabic Alphabet for Beginners

This module is intended for non-native speakers of Arabic language learners with no background in Arabic. The module presents the Arabic script and sound system. The program is planned to cover the Alphabet in 2 weeks provided you practice every day for 2 hours. The module can be used for self-paced instruction or to complement a face-to-face taught course.

The Alphabet Module is composed of 18 units which present the Alphabet sound system and script. Each Unit focuses on a country or city name as context for presenting the new letters and sounds that compose this country name. Each unit also provides review reading and writing practice as well as dictation and pronunciation exercises.

Methodology

The Module uses an analytic approach towards presenting the Alphabet. It presents a menu of country and city names which the learner has to study in sequence. The learner starts from the country on the top of the left menu and follows down till the end of the left column before s/he moves up to the right column and then downwards to the very end.
