The first integrated platform for teaching Arabic to non-native speakers We believe Arabic is one of the easiest languages in the world to learn. Faseelh focuses on: • Learning the Arabic language, not Arabic literature • Common phrases and real-life situations • Communication and speaking skills • Simplified, gradual Arabic grammar • Dozens of varied exercises that make learning Arabic genuinely easy Faseelh Foundation for Integrative Education provides a placement test, so the student, institution, or teacher can accurately identify the right starting level. The platform stands out with: • A placement test with a certificate attested by the platform • Accurate periodic reports on language skills, showing strengths, weaknesses, and progress over time • End-of-level tests with a certificate attested by the platform Built for the whole learning circle, not just the student: • A dedicated parent account to follow your child's progress moment by moment • A dedicated teacher account for managing classes and lessons, grading voice recordings, and reviewing reports • Switch between accounts instantly, without ever logging out • All of a teacher's corrections gathered in one clear list, complete with voice notes and points • A clearer voice recorder with an end-of-lesson summary, so speaking practice is easy to record and easy to review • A sticker album and awards system that keeps students motivated as they progress • Easier sign-in with automatic language detection • Notifications that take you straight to the right screen, in a lighter, faster app Most Arabic courses and curricula still rely on traditional, teacher-centered methods, without benefiting from the advances that have transformed language learning elsewhere — especially English. Because Arabic deserves better, we built an integrated learning system based on: • Combining traditional and modern methods through developed tools • Focusing on common words and phrases, so students can read within three months and start speaking within a few months • Attention to each student's individual learning style • Simplified, clearly explained grammar • Putting the student at the center of the learning process • A gamified learning system • A massive bank of questions and content • Ongoing tracking of each student's language skills for continuous follow-up and development Terms of use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
