This programme is an introductory programme for spoken Levantine Arabic. As I had already unsuccessfully tried a couple of other methods to learn Fusha Arabic I was rather skeptic about Lingua Verna"s claim to get their students speaking in a short amount of time.
Now, a couple of months later, I only regret that I did not join this programme sooner. I could have spared myself so much trouble and self doubt.
If you want to learn Arabic and are on the fence about whether to join this programme:
Do yourself a favour and go for it!
Lingua verna is a small group of native teachers who are not only friendly and funny but also polyglots and well aware of the science behind language learning.
The material you get is extensive and incredibly well produced. You could perfectly well study on your own with all the videos and exercises you are given.
Part of learning a new language is to overcome the stress and embarrassment when you are urged to speak.
Going from passive language aquisition to actual output, is, where many students get stuck.
Lingua Verna assigns you to a weekly practice group where you can overcome your shyness and practice your conversation skills in a safe and warm surrounding.
DL;DR:
Lingua verna covers all the bases, they get you talking in very short time and, for what you get, the price is really a steal.

At Lingua Verna (meaning “vernacular language”), we believe that spoken dialects are a powerful tool for breaking down cultural barriers and fostering genuine human connections.
Our focus is on Levantine Arabic, the dialect spoken in Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, and Jordan. We primarily serve members of the North American and European diaspora communities and their non-Arab partners who seek high-quality, affordable, and enjoyable resources to learn Arabic effectively.
We are equally committed to making a positive impact. Our team comprises talented individuals who are either refugees resettled in Western countries or living in areas of economic hardship and political instability in the Middle East. By offering living wages to our employees and contractors, we ensure that our mission supports not only language learners but also the communities we serve.See more
