Grammar Tutorials for the Al Kitaab textbook Series

Discover all the essential grammar covered in Al Kitaab Book 1 (3rd edition), conveniently gathered in one place. Our videos use color, images, and a touch of sarcasm to make learning Arabic grammar engaging and enjoyable. Whether you're currently studying from this textbook or looking to brush up on your skills, these videos are a comprehensive resource that will help you understand the intricacies of Arabic grammar with ease.

The Flipped Arabic Classroom

Students should watch the videos until they feel confident with the information presented. Next, they should read the textbook, complete the exercises, and finally attend class ready to use their new knowledge. This effective teaching strategy is known as the "Flipped Classroom" method. Critical Language Service was the first Arabic institute to adopt this method for teaching Al Kitaab. We've been using this innovative approach since before the term "Flipped Classroom" became famous.

Benefits of The Flipped Classroom Approach

  • Enhanced Student Engagement: The flipped classroom model encourages active learning by allowing students to review lectures at their own pace at home, freeing up class time for interactive discussions, hands-on activities, and personalized support.
  • Improved Understanding and Retention: By engaging with the material before class, students come prepared with questions and a basic understanding, leading to deeper comprehension and better retention of the subject matter during in-class activities.
  • Flexible Learning Environment: This approach accommodates different learning styles and paces, giving students the flexibility to revisit challenging concepts as needed and fostering a more inclusive and effective educational experience.

More than Video Lectures

Flipping the classroom via video lectures is just the beginning. Interactive digital exercises and resources, like those provided below, enhance the learning experience by building upon the videos to ensure students are well-prepared to actively engage with lesson concepts during class time.
