Arabic schools in the Middle East

Interest forums / Speaking in Tongues

Hello!

I'd like to study Arabic in the Middle East this summer. What are some of the more reputable schools? I'm open to any country.

Thank you,

Diana

I am no expert, but the best ones are said to be in Syria, specially Damascus and Aleppo. Also, they seem to speak a very "clean" and neutral form of Arabic

I've heard good things about the Intensive Arabic program at the American University in Cairo, but I've also heard that it's very expensive.
