We offer our participants three hours of complimentary Arabic Classes each week, taught one-to-one or in small groups of two to three students, and accommodation during their stay.

On your two days off per week, traveling to other nearby cities such as Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Ramallah, Jericho, Nablus, Tulkarem, and more is easy. Traveling to these other cities is a valuable experience and will allow you to compare and contrast life in different cities to Hebron and your home country.
