Hi All,

I'm really wanting to learn Arabic but finding it very hard to locate an instructor or classes, can anyone help?

Pop to your local mosque.
Should be plenty of people there who'll be happy to help you.

I have the same problem. Very few people at the mosque can speak or understand English. Strange I am a Muslim but in my non Muslim South Africa I get more spiritual upliftment. Here I don't understand any Arabic

But that might give the impression that he's interested in Islam, which doesn't seem to be the case. Rather, he wants to study Arabic.

I really just interested in learning the language rather than converting to Islam.

Hello Scott -> Do not forget that you can post an advert in the Classes section (Language classes) in the Saudi Arabia classifieds.

Thank you,

I am learning how to speak Arabic by observing how the local speak. Talk to an Arabic speaking everyday and you'll learn slowly.
