Two protections for every student

14-Day “Show Up and Speak” Guarantee

Attend your first four live classes within the first 14 days, complete the required work, and give the system a real chance. If it still is not the best Arabic instruction you have experienced, tell us within the 14-day window for a full refund.

“Life-Happens” Protection

Before class starts, move your start date to a later month for free. Between modules, finish your current 26-hour module, pause, and return later without losing your place. During a module, use one emergency freeze and restart that module from day one when you return.
