Ibn Ghazi Arabic Institute

“I had 10 days of intensive individual Arabic classes. Mr. Fouad arranged me an amazing teacher, ustaza Mouna and a homestay despite during Ramadan. I also was invited to participate at a calligraphy and music workshop which I really enjoyed. I also participated at an iftar, an evening meal during Ramadan with other students. There was nice local food and music. All in all I was satisfied with everything. I would genuinely recommend this school.”

“I attended an Arabic calligraphy workshop at the Ibn Ghazi Institute as part of my study abroad trip to Morocco. This was definitely one of the highlights of my trip! The students and staff at the Institute were extremely generous and hospitable. They showed us around Fez, hosted us for a traditional dinner with entertainment, and graciously participated in a cross-cultural exchange project for my university.”

“I truly appreciate Mouad’s work as an Arabic teacher. He is patient, respectful, and creates a calm, motivating atmosphere in every class. I also loved how he used examples from the Qur’an — it made each lesson more meaningful and spiritually engaging. My thanks as well to Mr. Fouad, whose warmth and professionalism make the whole experience at Ibn Ghazi Institute both welcoming and inspiring. A wonderful place to learn Arabic with heart and excellence”

“I consider a honour the chance to get into the Ibn Ghazi Arabic Institute. Someone said that teaching is like the midwife’s job and I agree, because you help someone to come to life. Especially if you’re a language teacher. Language is not just an alphabet, a vocabulary and related rules, it’s a way of living, it’s a culture! All the staff in the Institute are simply great, they try to make everything easy, convenient and comfortable. Mr. Fouad is a really kind and open minded man, he really listens and makes decisions with you about the path you are taking. Last few words to my teacher, Mouad, with whom I fall in love as every little child do with the teacher 😂😂😂 He has great skills and a lot of patience, the journey I had with him it’s the best you can get. What can I say? I hope and I am quite sure I will be back.”

“I came to Ibn Ghazi with a university classmate and stayed in Fes for 4 weeks. We were able to partake in 5-hours of Arabic lessons a day, 5 days a week. Hassan and Mohammed were not only fantastic teachers who encouraged us every step of the way, but also spent time with us outside of the classroom: showing us parts of Fes and taking us out for coffee. We were able to spend the weekends travelling around Morocco. Even before we arrived, Fouad arranged everything for us, from an airport pick-up to our accommodation, and we had a fantastic time with our host-family. I would encourage anyone with an interest in Morocco and the Arabic language to visit the Ibn Ghazi Arabic Institute. Shukhran sadiqi!”

“We recently stayed at the Ibn Ghazi Institute for a weekend with a group of 13 students and had a fantastic experience! Fouad organised for us a tour of the old madina of Fes, planed a workshop on Arabic calligraphy and Quranic recitation and took us for a visit of an old Amazigh village as well as the Ifrane University. It was truly amazing and we could have not had a better beginning into our Morocco visit. Thank you!”
