What Our Students Are Saying
“This is a truly remarkable course MaashaAllah and a once in a lifetime opportunity. I can’t think of any Arabic course that is combined with this type of travel experience and to learn with an amazing group of people. Finally, the course materials and the teachers were excellent. I can’t speak highly enough of it.”
Zihaad Wilkinson (Management Consultant; United Kingdom)
“The whole course approach + excursion is great value for money. The institute is always ready to help even when you lag; they do constant check-ins, they ensure that you study and do your assignments. This course is perfect for busy professionals who want to learn Arabic.”
Ibraheem Babalola (Venture Builder; Canada)
“The curriculum of this course is structured in a way that every week you get to see the progress that you have made and the Study Arabic in Africa team is always ready to help and this is very important to me as a working professional to be able to get that level of support. This experience has been very exciting even with the challenges I faced because it took some personal efforts to get to where I wanted to be too.”
Hamdalah Adetunji (Software Engineer, Germany)
“This course stands out to me because of the immersion experience, the community of students and teachers and the excursion - being able to remove yourself from rigorous day-to-day activities for two weeks to travel to a place where you learn and use Arabic is really great. Ustadh Jubril goes to extra lengths to carry everyone along; Appreciate the enthusiasm and energy brought to class.”
Zainab Dosunmu (Management Consultant; Nigeria)
“Our teacher, Ustadh Jubril Alao brought his A-game to the table. Many times during the course I felt like I couldn’t go on but seeing him show up daily (and on time) ready to pour into us was enough motivation to keep going even when I felt overwhelmed. Having a teacher that is passionate about teaching and the progress of his students is a game-changer and I thank our teacher for this.”
Oyinkan Momoh (Image Consultant & Islamic Counsellor; Nigeria)
“The journey started over a year ago through online classes and I’m still amazed at the progress I made during our 2 week Intensive Immersive Retreat in Dakar Senegal. Alhamdulillah for growth and the beginning of what will insha’Allah be a lifelong journey of learning and development.”
Zahra Zakariyah (Strategist/Social Entrepreneur; United Kingdom)
“I found the course really intensive; it was the kind of course where you can clearly see that you have made a lot of progress; It was very clear to me how far I had come and how much I had grown at the end of it. Also, our instructor's style of teaching greatly improved my listening which helped me to be able to translate better and answer questions quickly. Everyone should come and learn Arabic with Study in Africa because you have the full immersion and intensive classes, the holiday experience you get during the excursions - you get to speak fluently with the locals . It's the full package in a lot of ways.”
Nabila Shuaib (Student; United KIngdom)
“The course with Ustadh Jubril has enabled me to gain a lot of knowledge of the Arabic language in a short amount of time, and also gave me insight to how vast and rich the language is. This has further increased my drive to learn more about it and put myself in a position to benefit others through teaching.”
