The Arabic Language Institute in Fez (ALIF)
offers three and six-week courses in all levels of Modern Standard
Arabic and Colloquial Moroccan Arabic
throughout the year.
ALIF provides an ideal setting for studying in
Morocco's "intellectual capital", and for exploring the historic medina of Fez,
one of the world's few remaining medieval cities.
ALIF's teachers are highly qualified native
speakers with years of experience instructing both individual students and
groups from major universities. Former students include translators, Fulbright,
FLAS, NSEP, and SSRC grantees, company representatives, and graduate students
from major universities in the US and Europe.
ALIF resources include an extensive library
collection focusing on Arabic linguistics, the Maghreb, Islamic Art and
Architecture, and Islam. ALIF offers cultural tours, lectures, and classes
on Maghrebi literature, media and Islam. Private courses in any number of
subject areas can be arranged. The modest ALIF tuition, low cost of living in
Morocco, and widely available discount air fares, also render ALIF a
cost-effective alternative for the study of Arabic abroad or domestically.
