No reviews yet

Hello, I give Arabic lessons (Darija and classical) for people who would like to learn this language for personal or professional reasons. I have a personalized program for you that will allow you to learn quickly.

The course in Modern Standard Arabic is designed for students who can read and write using Arabic script but have very basic understanding of vocabulary. This course will further develop vocabulary, while introducing students to sentence structure and basic grammatical skills. It will continue to introduce students to many aspects of Arab culture. It will introduce proper use of an Arabic dictionary. All class exercises and activities are either task-based or student centered. By the end of the course, students will be able to discuss topics of both personal and professional interest such as politics, religion, culture, and economics.
Required Instructional Materials:
1. Al-Batal, M., Al-Tonsi, A., Brustad, K. Al-Kitaab fii Taallum al-Arabiyya: Part one, 2nd edition, Washington D. C.: Georgetown University Press.
2. Wehr, Hans. The Hans Wehr Dictionary of Modern Written Arabic, 1994.

Evaluation and assessment:
1. Active Class Participation 30%

Students should participate in classroom activities which target comprehension and language production. This requires the students to come prepared to participate. Active participation entails the following:
(a) Class attendance. Class attendance is necessary for the success of the whole learning process. Students who miss class hours without proper documentation will have that reflected in their overall course grade.
(b) Homework assignments: Students are expected to submit their assignments on time.

2. Written exam 40%

Exams test students` mastery of vocabulary and grammar structures. They also include reading, writing and listening tasks to assess the effective use of language in context. A typical exam contains 4 sections:
Listening Section: students will listen to an audio or video clip followed by general comprehension questions.
Grammar Section: The understanding of grammar is tested through multiple choice or sentence completion tasks.
Reading Section: Reading comprehension will be tested by short texts to check the general understanding of the text.
Writing Section: At this level, students will be asked to write a paragraph to five about one of the topics they covered.

3. Project 30%

Students will research a topic of interest to them and develop a 10 minute presentation with the assistance of TA’s and under the guidance of their instructor. They will present this project to their peers at the end of the course.
In addition to these specific written assignments, students who want to excel in Arabic should do the following on a daily basis:
Review what was covered after each class, particularly new grammatical structures and/or usages, to make sure you fully understand how and when to use them.
Make flash cards—with the Arabic word on one side of the card and its equivalent in English on the other—for each new vocabulary word introduced either in the course texts or in class activities and discussions.
Review flash cards every day, sometimes starting with the Arabic side first and sometimes with the English side first. Set aside the words you do not know and review these words two more times in the same day.
Ask questions in class whenever you need additional explanation to clarify new structures and how or when to use them.
Practice speaking Arabic as much as possible, especially when you interact with native speakers outside of class as well as with your teacher and your classmates.
