About us

Arabesk Academy was founded in 2020, in the midst of the COVID pandemic, by Danish language instructors at Askov Højskole. From one day to the next, teaching was forced online, making the need for an effective and engaging digital learning platform essential. On short notice, we began developing tools and materials that not only enabled continued instruction but also introduced a new way to connect with students—regardless of physical distance.

What started as an emergency solution quickly proved to have far greater potential. After the pandemic, it became clear that the digital tools we had developed during the crisis could also be integrated into traditional teaching. Since then, the platform has grown, and we have collaborated with partners, professionals, educators, and programmers to continuously develop and improve our offerings. We actively work to incorporate the latest AI solutions to ensure that learning remains dynamic and relevant.

Today, we see ourselves as a community where modern technology meets traditional learning values. Our goal is to create an environment where both students and educators thrive while acquiring linguistic and cultural knowledge and strengthening their competencies.

Arabesk Academy blev grundlagt i 2020 midt under COVID-pandemien af danskundervisere på Askov Højskole. Fra den ene dag til den anden blev undervisningen tvunget online, og behovet for en effektiv og engagerende digital læringsplatform blev essentielt. Med kort varsel begyndte vi at udvikle værktøjer og materialer, der ikke blot muliggjorde fortsat undervisning, men også skabte en ny måde at møde eleverne på – uanset fysisk afstand.

Det, der startede som en nødløsning, viste sig hurtigt at have langt større potentiale. Efter pandemien stod det klart, at de digitale redskaber, vi havde udviklet under krisen, også kunne integreres i den almindelige undervisning. Siden da er platformen vokset, og vi har tilknyttet samarbejdspartnere, fagfolk, undervisere og programmører for løbende at udvikle og forbedre vores tilbud. Vi arbejder aktivt på at inkorporere de nyeste AI-løsninger, så undervisningen forbliver dynamisk og relevant.

I dag ser vi os som et fællesskab, hvor moderne teknologi møder klassiske læringsdyder. Vores mål er at skabe et miljø, hvor både elever og undervisere trives, mens de tilegner sig sproglig og kulturel viden samt styrker deres kompetencer.
