About Lisan

Last updated: 2026

Lisan is a platform that teaches Arabic to non-native speakers — from the first letter to fluency — with a graded curriculum, native audio, and certified teachers.

Our mission

We want every learner to think in Arabic, not to translate into it. That is why our lessons use images, context, and audio instead of rote translation.

The core curriculum is free. Optional one-to-one follow-up with a certified teacher is paid, and covers the platform's running costs.

How we teach

A graded path of levels, units and lessons: listen, then read, then practise. A lesson only unlocks once the previous one has settled.

Spaced-repetition review resurfaces each word just before you would forget it, and a built-in dictionary explains any word with examples and images.
