The Why

Many non-Arab speakers seek to learn this language because of their religion. Islam is a dominant religion within the Arab world and around the globe in general. Muslims read and recite the Quran which is the holy book of Allah (God.) Of course, the language of the Quran is in Arabic. Millions around the world need this language in order to read, understand, and practice the reciting’s of this book. Most people teach their children Arabic before their teens to ensure they can grasp everything. However, this doesn’t mean that it’s too late to learn Arabic. Teens can do so as well. But they need different ways to be dealt with.

The How

Worksheets

Apps

This is not exactly online, but it is still within the range of technology. Apps are a great way to learn Arabic for teens the right way. This is particularly beneficial for this age group.

Video Games

Courses
