Motivating your child to learn Arabic in a non-Arabic-speaking country?
In 2016, we, the team behind ArabyOn, arrived in Kitchener-Waterloo to pursue our Master’s degrees in Humanities. Upon residing in the area, we noticed a rising need for Arabic learning among children. We also noticed that immigrant parents are finding it challenging to motivate children to learn Arabic in a non-Arabic speaking country.
Together, we decided to start a tutoring service that provides focused Arabic learning with a fun interactive approach that caters to each child's learning needs.
Our team hold a dear appreciation for all the Arabic cultures and traditions. We are keen not only on teaching, but also on learning, exploring and sharing the joy of Arabic with the students and their families.
