Arabic lessons online in Libya

Learning Arabic from Libya

Learners in Libya usually speak Libyan Arabic at home. They ask Lisanova for Quran lessons for their children, MSA support for formal writing and study, or Moroccan Darija for Moroccan family and friends.

Lisanova Academy is an online academy run from Morocco. It has no classroom, branch or locally based tutor outside Morocco: every lesson is a live one-to-one video lesson with a Moroccan teacher.

Moroccan Darija, MSA and Libyan Arabic

Lisanova teaches two kinds of Arabic only: Modern Standard Arabic (MSA, Fusha) — the shared written and formal Arabic of books, news, documents and schools across the Arab world — and Moroccan Darija, the everyday spoken Arabic of Morocco. It does not teach Libyan Arabic, or any dialect other than Moroccan Darija.

Libyan Arabic, especially in the west, shares features with other Maghrebi varieties, but it is distinct from Moroccan Darija in vocabulary and pronunciation.

Lisanova’s Quran teachers hold Ijazah in recitation and Tajweed.

Lesson times

Libya is on Eastern European Time (UTC+2). This is UTC+2 all year. Morocco is on UTC+1 for most of the year and UTC+0 during Ramadan, so you are usually one hour ahead of Morocco and two hours ahead during Ramadan.

When you book the free trial or ask on WhatsApp, send your city and two or three preferred local times. The academy replies with a proposed time in your local time and in Morocco time; the lesson is fixed only once you both confirm. No timetable is published in advance and no hour is guaranteed.

Explanation language

Teachers explain in Arabic, English, French or Spanish; the Arabic you learn is a separate choice from the explanation language. Tell us your preference when you enquire and we confirm a suitable teacher before you commit.
