Keeping Arabic alive can be hard when your child is growing up between languages.

Many children understand more Arabic than they speak. Apps rarely give enough practice, and finding the right tutor can feel stressful.

Does this sound like your child?

Choose the one that feels closest.

“She understands everything her grandmother says, but answers in English.”

Her tutor can gently build speaking confidence, one small win at a time. No child is pushed to speak before they’re ready.

Inside a Nanour lesson

A real lesson, built around your child

Your child learns live with a regular tutor, using structured materials that build from one lesson to the next. Every lesson is recorded, so you and your child can revisit it afterwards.

Example

Every child learns differently

Before the first lesson, you can tell us what helps your child, what they enjoy and what they find hard. If you choose to share this, their tutor uses it to help shape the teaching: the pace, activities and examples. The curriculum defines what your child learns; the tutor can adapt how it is taught around your child.

You can tell us about your child

What helps, what they enjoy and anything their tutor should know.

Lessons connect with their interests

Examples and activities can draw on things they already enjoy.

Different ways to understand

Tutors can use pictures, sounds, games, writing and conversation to explain and practise the same skills.

Their pace, with a clear path

The curriculum gives direction while the tutor can adjust the pace along the way.

You’re never left guessing

A warm summary after every lesson

After each lesson your child’s tutor sends a short, friendly update — what your child practised, how it went, and what to try next — so you can follow the progress even if you don’t speak Arabic yourself. You will receive it in English, Arabic or French — whichever you read most comfortably.

Example

A clear learning journey, not random lessons

Every child follows a structured, levelled pathway in Modern Standard Arabic, moving step by step from first words to confident reading, writing and speaking.

“Our children were growing up between languages. Arabic was around them — in family WhatsApp threads, in songs, in a grandparent’s voice on a video call. But around wasn’t enough. So we built the structure.”
— Nadia, founder and Nanour parentWrite to us

Questions parents often ask

Does my child need to know Arabic already?

No. Many children start from no Arabic at all — the curriculum begins at the very first letters and builds from there.

What happens in the free trial?

Your child meets one of our tutors for a friendly 20-minute lesson. No payment is needed, and it helps us confirm the right starting level.

Can we do weekly or twice-weekly lessons?

Yes. We recommend a rhythm after the trial, and you choose what fits your family — weekly or twice-weekly.

How do you choose the tutor?

A real person on our team chooses the tutor we think fits your child best, based on a short conversation with you — not an algorithm.

What if my child is shy or reluctant to speak Arabic?

That is very common. Nanour tutors build confidence gently through warm conversation, repetition and structured practice. Children are not pressured to speak before they are ready.

Do parents need to speak Arabic?

No. Parent updates explain what your child practised and what they can do next, so you can support them even if you are not confident in Arabic yourself.
