About this course
Learning a new language gives you more opportunities to communicate, grow and connect with others.
Would you like to speak Moroccan Arabic with family, friends, colleagues or people you meet while travelling in Morocco? Darija for Beginners A1 at Kulin in Eindhoven offers a welcoming, practical introduction to the language widely used in everyday life across Morocco.
Darija, also known as Moroccan Arabic, differs from Modern Standard Arabic in vocabulary, pronunciation and everyday usage. This course therefore focuses on spoken communication in familiar situations. You will practise greetings, introductions, asking questions, shopping, ordering food and having simple conversations with relatives and acquaintances.
The programme consists of 12 classroom lessons of 90 minutes, spread over 6 weeks with two lessons per week. This schedule gives you regular opportunities to practise and gradually use new expressions. Speaking and listening are central, supported where useful by accessible written forms and transliteration.
You also receive access to e-learning and study materials to practise common vocabulary, pronunciation and short dialogues independently. These resources are included in the course price.
The course is suitable for adults with no previous knowledge of Darija, including people with Moroccan partners or relatives, travellers and anyone interested in learning a new language. Our practical approach encourages participation and confidence rather than perfection.
For €269, you receive 12 lessons and 18 classroom hours, including e-learning and study materials. Start learning Moroccan Arabic in Eindhoven and discover how small steps can help you understand and communicate more in Darija.
