Arabic lessons online in Lithuania

Learning Arabic from Lithuania

Lithuania has one of Europe’s oldest Muslim communities: the Lipka Tatars, who settled in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania from the fourteenth century and whose historic wooden mosques still stand. Today, Arabic learners include Tatar and newer Muslim families who want Quran reading, students, and people with Moroccan or Arabic-speaking partners.

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

Starting Arabic from Lithuanian

Lithuanian speakers start with the Arabic alphabet, written right to left, and with sounds Lithuanian does not have, such as ع (ʿayn) and ح (ḥa). Lessons are not explained in Lithuanian, Polish or Russian; most learners choose English.

Lisanova teaches two kinds of Arabic: Modern Standard Arabic (MSA, Fusha) — the formal Arabic of books, news, documents and Islamic scholarship — and Moroccan Darija, the everyday spoken Arabic of Morocco. Quran lessons are a separate path. It does not teach Levantine, Iraqi, Egyptian, Gulf or other Arabic dialects, or Tamazight (Berber) languages.

Modern Standard Arabic lessons in Lithuania

MSA lessons suit beginners who want to read and write, students who need speaking and grammar practice, and adults who read the Quran and want to understand its Arabic. Lessons follow the six CEFR levels from A1.

Moroccan Darija lessons in Lithuania

Online Moroccan Darija lessons suit learners with a Moroccan partner or friends and travellers heading to Morocco. Lessons are conversation-first and can begin in Latin letters.

Quran lessons online in Lithuania

Quran reading lessons start from the letters and short surahs and continue with Tajweed, so a child or adult can read accurately with a teacher listening to each verse. Families can book separate lessons for each child.

Quran lessons available: reading from the first letters, recitation with correction, Tajweed rules, memorization (Hifz) with revision, and understanding the meanings. Lisanova’s Quran teachers hold Ijazah in recitation and Tajweed. Lessons are arranged on WhatsApp so the academy can confirm the teacher, the explanation language and a realistic scope; no memorization outcome is promised.

Quran and Islamic Studies: single class $12 per hour; Monthly Package 1, 8 hours per month, $80; Monthly Package 2, 12 hours per month, $110. Families get 15% off for each additional sibling. Discover Islam sessions are free.

An online Arabic tutor for Vilnius

In Vilnius, a private online tutor fits around university timetables and office hours: one regular weekly lesson with the same teacher where possible, with no travel across the city.

Kaunas, Klaipėda and the rest of Lithuania

Learners in Kaunas, Klaipėda and smaller towns follow the same arrangement, as long as the connection is stable enough for a video call.

Lesson times

Lithuania is on Eastern European Time. Eastern European Time is UTC+2 in winter and UTC+3 in summer. Morocco is on UTC+1 for most of the year and UTC+0 during Ramadan, so you are usually one hour ahead of your teacher in winter and two hours ahead in summer, and one hour more 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

Lisanova has teachers who explain lessons in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese, as well as in Arabic; not every teacher speaks every one of these languages. The Arabic you learn is a separate choice from the explanation language. English suits most learners in Lithuania; lessons are not explained in Lithuanian, Polish or Russian. Tell us your preference when you enquire and we match you with a suitable teacher.
