The students in Djabal first learn to speak the language of their parents and depends on what region of Darfur they are from- most commonly Fur, Masalit, and Zaghawa, but dozens of other tribal languages are also spoken. Starting school might be the first introduction that students have to Arabic- the language of instruction. English is also taught at the higher levels, but the schools' capacities to teach English depend on the number of English-speaking teachers available. December 2011
