Fall and Summer Semesters 2019 - 2020
> I moved to Cairo from Australia to complete the Fall and Summer semesters of the Arabic Language Intensive Program which was undoubtedly one of the best decisions of my life! The quality of teaching was amazing and Laila and the ALI team organized events and trips that introduced us to Egypt and allowed us to feel at home instantly. I made life-long friends through this program and saw a phenomenal increase in my fluency. My time in Egypt and at AUC was incredible!
