My teacher was very nice. She helped us in every way possible. She told us also interesting things about the Arab culture and the way of living in Jordan.

The fast course took me from nothing to reading and writing whole things in only two weeks. Thanks to the teacher Juhaina I made quick progress . I can fully recommend the course !

In general, I really had a good time and I progressed so I’m quite happy. I loved the energy and professionalism of the teachers. They put so much energy and creativity in teaching. I really learned.

I had a great time in Ali Baba. Everything was perfect and your staff is very friendly . I will come back soon for a longer period.

This month was very intensive for me. I am proud to fullfil all the things I had to study . I feel it was some time hard. It was a challenge. I will never forget this month. I met very nice people. I think I had the best teacher women. I appreciate, that the workers on Ali Baba school are very friendly. It is in the cafeteria or an the reception or teachers. The trips from the Ali Baba organized have been very nice and give me knowing about this country\. I am very thankful for this. As well the Ali Baba organized for me a family to stay, so I learned many things about the culture here and I felt in this family like at house . As well I felt secure in Jordan. So I will go rich back to Switzerland

I had a very nice time with the Ali Baba language center its was happy to come there every morning. The atmosphere is very inviting, friendly and warm . The stunning view over the university. A plus is the schools location. I liked the lengths of the classes, the atmosphere between the session (in the breaks) and over it was great because I had the best classmate and the best teacher I could imagine. I feel encouraged to use everything I've learned in the upcoming weeks and hope to return to Ali Baba soon ! Thanks for giving me the chance to study here .

I really liked my stay at Ali Baba. From almost the first day everything was clear to me , how it works. I progressed very fast and I’m very happy of my Arabic-level I’ve achieved in this time. The whole building is very clean and very well situated, there are plenty of things to do in and around Ali Baba.

I had a great time here and had to talk so much, that was exactly what I came for. I feel like I have done a big step in my Arabic. The school is very professional and the teacher had some good ideas how to teach. Also the head of school is highly professional and well organized. I got explained everything very well and would definitely recommend the school to others!

The material was adapted to the level of the student. The instructor varied the structure and activities so as to keep the students interested. There was also a clean strategy to guide the student’s progress in all competencies (maybe the reading aspect was a bit less focused on). Overall very positive. All the employees were professional and available to answer to our questions and guide us. It was much appreciated. Also the activities organized on the sidelines were interesting and allowed students of different classes to meet. Overall very good impression. I would recommend the school.

Thank you all for being so helpful all the time, especially to my teacher who answered all of my questions! Now I feel much more comfortable handling the Arabic language and also living in Jordan. The opportunity of staying with a host family was great!

 Please find hereby assessment of my learning stay with ali baba. I studied for months Jordanian colloquial with Hadeel omer,in private lessons 20 hours a week. The last months and half incorporated msa and media Arabic too. I found the methodology very efficient and adapted and I really appreciated my teacher . every day brought new teaching tools,like readings, short silent movies to comment ,popular series short episodes, songs, lyrics , ..

I found Hadeel very professional in all aspects, always perfectly prepared, enthusiastic, with mastered pedagogical skills and above all a passion to share and teach her language and fine spirit and sense of humor. All those combined assured a solid progress and I do thank her for her dedication.

I also learned a lot about culture and local and regional issues In the socio–economic and political fields with very interesting discussions and exchanges in an always respectful atmosphere. I would have appreciated a book of Jordanian dialect to go along the course, with dictionary but it seems not to be existent on the market, but the photocopied material received day by day compensated.

I also appreciated the teacher’s flexibility and ability to respond to my requests or suggestions. I also loved the center and staff, and found everything to be very serious and well organized with people always in a good mood. I also liked the accommodation facilities near the school which saved a lot of time in transport. In summary, congratulations and I will undoubtedly recommend Ali Baba to any committed student .

I had such an amazing month at Ali Baba. There is absolutely nothing that I didn’t like at this school. I was very lucky to have been put with a great teacher. She is such a lovely, smart and fun teacher ! it was a great mix of Arabic and political, historical and cultural background information about the whole middle east region. I also loved the structure of the lesson. The teacher managed it very well to find a good combination between grammar vocabulary a conversation! I am also very grateful that we could change the time table quite flexibly, as in Ramadan I hardly ever managed to go to bed early. Being only 2 in class was a privilege. I did not have a lot of contact with the staff but they all seen to be super nice !

Sine I’ve been in Amman for almost 3 months now. I have visited many places in Jordan and made so many local friends here ,so that I have never joined the social programme. But I have heard that it was very cool. Well, I will miss Jordan and everything here so much and just want to say a big shukran to Ali Baba for having provided me this great month. I have learned much more than I expected and will definitely continue with Arabic. I hope to be back in Amman. Many thanks for everything Ali Baba!
 

I really enjoyed my stay at Ali Baba. I had private lessons 4 hours a day and it was great. I really improved my Arabic. In the lessons I’ve learned many new words, not only words but the teacher also taught me how to use them in sentences. My teacher was really motivated and very patient with me. I felt warmly welcomed here. The staff was very kind and helped me to organize my one-day trip to Madaba. The material used during the lesson was very helpful. I’m really happy and don’t regret coming to this school.

I really enjoyed my course at Ali Baba and recommend every one who is looking for a professional private course to visit Ali Baba. My instruction focused on my needs (e.g. pronunciation, reading). Moreover, my instructor was flexible and switched between modern standard Arabic and Jordanian Ammiya. She used different materials and informed me about the syllabus which gave me a good overview about our objectives and the final exam. To sum up , I really recommend the Ali Baba International Center and I’m looking forward to my second course .
