Tips for Learning Arabic

Vocab lists are ok but slow, learning phrases and sentences is much better.
Listen to Arabic speakers in the target area that you wish to learn. So if you want to learn Modern Arabic listen to the news or documentaries. If you want to learn Classical Arabic listen to the Quran.
Use all the language skills not just reading.
You do not have to study serious material all the time mix it up sometimes by watching cartoons or comedy, time and resources permitting.
Learning a little daily is better than a once a week lesson that lasts two hours.
Revise, review, repeat. Whenever possible try to go back over material you might have already covered no matter how long ago or however recent.
If your having group lessons the smaller the group the better the results. Likewise the larger the group the more distraction or potential for time to be wasted. Try to learn with people who are motivated and consistent.
Self study may not work for most people but if you have a 1 to 1 with a tutor this may assist you better than going it alone or being amongst groups.
There is no big secret to learning it is all about being consistent. If you accept that there will be challenges and that some concepts may take time to understand you are more likely to last longer on your learning path. If you have good reasons for learning Arabic you will have more enjoyable moments.
