Great Textbook Double check book condition
I paid for a new textbook but received a used one. Fortunately enough the person’s notes have proven to be very helpful with the pronunciation of words throughout the book. As for the textbook I think it has a great layout and works you through the Arabic alphabet and beginning conversation.

No class code
I bought this as it was required for an Arabic class I took. To use the online portion of this it requires logging into a website with a class code. My professor didn’t have a class code so I couldn’t use that portion to listen to the videos and hear the language spoken and repeat it. Kind of a waste of $100.
