Online Arabic Tutors
Online Arabic Tutors — Learn Arabic from Home
One-on-one video lessons with certified native Arabic speakers. MSA or dialect, Quran Arabic, business Arabic, and tutors across MENA time zones — all without leaving your home.
Why Online Arabic Lessons Beat In-Person
Flexible Schedule
Tutors span Cairo (UTC+2), Dubai (UTC+4), Riyadh (UTC+3), and Casablanca (UTC+1) — plus diaspora tutors in Europe and North America. A suitable slot exists no matter your time zone.
Choose Your Arabic
Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) for reading media and formal writing, Egyptian dialect for the most widely understood spoken form, Gulf Arabic for business in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, or Levantine for Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria.
Session Recordings
Every lesson is saved to your Unox dashboard. Replay pronunciation corrections, revisit Arabic script writing demonstrations, and track your progress toward CEFR or ACTFL goals.
Screen Share & Whiteboard
Your tutor shares Arabic script exercises, Quranic verse breakdowns, or business document annotations live on screen. Annotate together in real time from anywhere.
Lesson Formats
1-on-1 Video Lesson
Private 25- or 50-minute sessions. Your tutor builds a personalised syllabus around your chosen Arabic variety — MSA, Quranic, dialect, or business Arabic.
Group Class
Three to six learners at the same level. More conversation turns, lower cost, and a supportive cohort for practising spoken Arabic.
Quran Recitation Club
A focused session on Tajweed rules and Quranic recitation with a qualified instructor. Open to all levels.
Intensive Weekend
Six hours across Saturday and Sunday. Ideal for script mastery, dialect immersion, or a business Arabic sprint.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an online Arabic tutor cost?
Rates on Unox range from $12 to $45 per hour depending on the tutor's qualifications and speciality. That is well below the $60–$120 per hour typical for in-person Arabic tutors in Western cities.
Should I learn Modern Standard Arabic or a dialect first?
If your goal is reading news, writing formal documents, or studying Arabic literature, start with MSA. If your goal is everyday conversation — shopping, socialising, or watching TV — choose the dialect of the region you care about most. Many learners do both in parallel with different tutors.
Can I find a tutor specifically for Quranic Arabic online?
Yes. Filter for tutors with Quran Arabic or Tajweed in their speciality. These instructors focus on correct recitation, understanding of Quranic vocabulary, and proper pronunciation rules (Makharij al-Huruf).
Do I need to install any software for online Arabic lessons?
No. The Unox classroom runs in any modern browser. A webcam and microphone are all you need. Your tutor can share Arabic script worksheets and reading materials directly on screen.
Can I switch tutors after the first lesson?
Yes, there is no lock-in. Book trial sessions with multiple tutors and purchase a package only once you have found your ideal match.
