in Marrakesh (ASMM), Morocco
The American Language Center of Marrakesh, Morocco
has opened a year-round Arabic Language Program in the historic city of Marrakesh. A very
interesting feature of this institute is their aim and methods include the concepts that
Arabic is not only a language but a key to a worldview, and a school should be a place of
opening perspectives and dialogue. The program is grammar centered and multi-moduled
allowing maximum flexibility for the varied needs of language learners. The reading of
Islamic texts and basic conversational and writing skills are integral aspects of the
program, classes are also easily moulded to fit individual or group needs. The program
also offers a complete ongoing cultural program as well as homestays with Moroccan
families and oppurtunities to meet with Moroccan students on a social basis so that the
learning experience goes beyond that of the classroom. For more information visit their
website.
Unfortunately, they had to close their doors.
