Arabic tutors

Arabic is offered at GCSE and A-level (Edexcel and AQA) and is taken by heritage speakers and second-language learners, with very different needs. The diglossia question is central: Modern Standard Arabic is what UK exams test, but most heritage speakers grew up with a colloquial dialect (Egyptian, Levantine, Gulf, Maghrebi). Tutoring helps most with the gap between dialect fluency and MSA literacy: script confidence, formal grammar, and the writing register. For ab initio learners, the script and root-pattern morphology are the early bottlenecks. Look for tutors with explicit MSA fluency and UK-spec experience, not just conversational Arabic.
