Nowadays, there are many problems in using methods found by higher students in the teaching and learning process of the Arabic language, for that it is necessary to have an update in the learning method. The purpose of this study is to develop a peer tutoring based Arabic learning model. From this development, it is expected to be a solution to the survey on the Arabic learning system in the Arabic Language Teaching Program, and the learning system is still classical. The classical learning model is less attractive to students. Because what happens is one-way communication.

Which lecturer will work with students who have a high ability to manage the class, and the class used is a small class with 10 class members.
