Searching for the right language teacher for your Arabic studies can, at first, seem very easy. Search online and you’ll see牋taught by ‘Native Speakers’ all over the place, ready to teach you the language. 燘ecause there are over 300 million native Arabic speakers in the world, does that mean that you can just choose any of those ‘Native Speakers’ to teach you Arabic?

If you were to learn English, would you choose any ‘ole “Native English Speaker” to teach you everything about the language? 燨r would you choose someone who really knows the rules of English, who has studied it in depth and knows how to teach it properly? 燱ould you choose that uneducated lad that lives in a燩odunk爐own in the middle of nowhere? 燱ould ya’ll learn English from him? 燬ure, he may be able to teach you that “It don’t take a genius to spot a goat in a flock of sheep” but is that really going to help you go study a complex book, a religious text or speak to a professional in your work-field?

As there are many individuals and websites out there that燾laim爐o have teachers that are ‘Native Arabic Speakers’, this doesn’t mean that they are or have teachers that have actually爏tudied爐he Arabic language and how to teach it. 燞ere are a few qualifications that I advise any Arabic student to consider when selecting who they learn the language from.
