“The idea of learning a new script can be very daunting, but Judith's course took the individual letters of Arabic, one by one, and made them easy to remember and fun to use. Thanks to her tips I was able to read entire sentences written in Arabic out loud, in an incredibly short time!”

I found this book to be very helpful for learning how to write the Russian alphabet. Just like with my native English letters there's a proper way to write Russian letters and I felt like this book showed you how without muddying up the process. -- Blkcatgoddess Amazon
The methods in this book are the best way to do it. -- Robert M Amazon
