Please complete the forms below to let us know more about your request for a Spanish or Arabic language class.

Once we receive your request, we will get back to you with a quote.

About our Spanish Program:

All courses focus on the use of inclusive, gender-neutral and anti-racist language. There is emphasis on validating U.S. Spanish and other varieties of Spanish often considered "non-standard." We actively include the use of "vos" as used in Central America.

About our Arabic Program:

All courses are designed for folks at different levels of fluency in their productive (speaking, writing) and receptive (listening and reading) skills. Special focus will be given to learning vocabulary and community organizing terminology relevant to contemporary social movements in the U.S. and the Arab world.

About our instruction: At Algarabía Language Co-op, we see language learning as a meaningful, collaborative and transformative process reflected in our training in hands-on communicative and task-based language teaching approaches and our use of popular education in the language classroom. We seek to support the holistic development of all language learners as they become competent multilingual speakers. We devise classroom activities and use textbooks and other original didactic materials that meet our participants’ needs and that represent the linguistic and racial/ethnic diversity of our Spanish-speaking worlds.

In the meantime, if you have any questions, please email us at algarabialanguage@gmail.com
