Just note this is not arabic, it's a dialect unfortunately.
All big enough languages have plenty of dialects.
The tool should teach arabic "classic" as it is intended for non arabic speakers.
The issue is that nobody speaks "classic" arabic in day to day life, so its not very useful. The egyptian dialect on the other hand is the most widely spoken dialect and understandable by most arabic speakers.
Media in all forms are full of classic Arabic, so your premise doesn't stand. I've just wanted to make a point on preserving the classic Arabic.
