Kalem Academy is a new online platform dedicated to teaching Arabic and Islamic studies to non-Arabic-speaking children worldwide. With passionate educators and engaging curricula, we make it easy for every learner to explore their language, faith, and heritage from home. Our mission is to deliver high-quality, accessible learning that nurtures cultural identity and lifelong values.
Backed by ACE the founders of Manaret Heliopolis Schools (est. 1980s) and Carleton College (international system since 2015), Kalem Academy builds on decades of proven educational excellence. Combining this legacy with innovative digital learning, we’re creating a trusted global academy for the next generation.
We envision a world where children from non-Arab communities grow up with a deep sense of belonging to the global Arab heritage. Our aim is to value and celebrate the beauty of Arabic language and appreciate Arab tradition. By building bridges between diverse backgrounds, we hope to develop compassionate, informed individuals who will become a beacon for families seeking to preserve identity and values across generations, creating pathways for meaningful cultural exchange and understanding.
Parents start by registering their child for an online placement test, followed by a secure payment process supported by our customer service team. Once enrolled, families receive instant confirmation and access to our learning platform. Ongoing assessments, rewards, and progress reports ensure learners stay engaged and continuously improve.
