The Syrian dialect is an umbrella term for the Levant dialect spoken in Syria, Palestine, Lebanon, and Jordan. This dialect is widely understood all over the Arab world, and is spoken everyday by the majority of Arabs in Berlin. Whether chatting with people or ordering falafel, this dialect can be practiced on a daily basis.

It is advisable to learn Standard Arabic first because it is the official written language of administration and media in all Arab countries. In our standard Arabic course, you will systematically learn the structure of the language. We have developed our own teaching materials for this
purpose, and attached great importance to designing lessons which are communicative and diverse.

The Kalamon Institute for Arabic Language offers courses for children with a maximum of 5 to 6 children per course. At our institute your child will learn to read and write the Arabic language, write, read, and
speak in a playful and interactive way, and in a safe environment. Previous knowledge of the language is not necessary for your child to
participate in a course.

The Egyptian and Palestinian dialects are particularly interesting: both dialects have their own characteristics and peculiarities. They are generally well understood in the Arab world and are two very old, yet beautiful and wordy dialects worth immersing yourself in.
