Once you have been exposed to Arabic and are familiar with the phonics (sounds of the letters) then this level is ideal. Dialogues are typically longer with more elements of grammar and a wider range of useful vocabulary for communication. The dialogues are repeated twice and the host speaks Arabic slowly and clearly which also makes this level perfect for beginners wanting a challenge.
