What are the benefits of learning a foreign language?

Research has shown that learning a foreign language like the Arabic language helps improve a person’s memory, increases attention span and the ability to multitask.

Start when they are young. Research has shown that teaching a child a second language like the Arabic language boosts problem-solving, critical-thinking, and listening skills.

Bilingual children also show signs of enhanced creativity and mental flexibility.

In addition, learning a new language at an early age is much easier than trying to learn it later, because the language center in the brain is still developing. Learning a new language helps the child develop empathy towards other cultures and languages and thus be more open-minded and receptive to other cultures. What makes Kalima special is a team of teachers that make sure every child’s skills are enhanced while learning the Arabic language through an online platform.

Online courses for children allow access to educational tools at the tip of your finger.

It also allows room for flexibility as well. At Kalima, we make sure to tailor to the needs of your child. Each session is individualized and built upon what the child likes and is interested in. At Kalima, we are keen on getting to know the child really well before planning the sessions. The sessions are built upon each other and we make sure the child sees the connection between them.

A session usually starts with a quick revision of what was tackled previously. The concepts learnt are regularly reviewed. We offer children chances to draw, dance, speak, write, read, and sing…thus we work with the child using a comprehensive and interactive approach. We also work with the parents on choosing the most appropriate and convenient time for each child’s sessions.  Our team of teachers developed a passion for teaching Arabic and took on a mission of showing the children that the Arabic language is super fun and enjoyable.
