AFRP Arabic Language Program
Fall Registration Now Open
Language is more than words. It is a powerful tool of preservation, connection, and identity. Through language, we do not just communicate. We belong!
The AFRP Arabic Program offers two tracks, both taught live over Zoom by qualified teachers from Bethlehem Bible College. Both tracks focus on Palestinian colloquial Arabic, not Modern Standard Arabic. Register today using the links below!

Conversational Arabic – Palestinian Dialect
This track focuses on speaking, listening, and everyday conversation. It does not require learning the Arabic alphabet. Course materials and textbooks use transliteration, which represents Arabic words using English letters, making it easier for students to begin speaking right away.
The Conversational Track currently offers 4 progressive levels and is ideal for students who want to build confidence in understanding and speaking Palestinian Arabic.
Traditional Arabic – Palestinian Dialect with Reading & Writing
This track builds a stronger foundation by teaching students to speak and understand Palestinian Arabic while also learning to read and write using the Arabic alphabet.
The Traditional Track includes 6 progressive levels and is ideal for students who want a more complete language-learning experience that combines speaking, listening, reading, and writing.
