Assessment

Learner progress will be assessed daily during each lesson as the teacher sees and hears that the student has become independent in reciting the information learned during the calendar routine. Students will be able to ask and answer questions in both languages. Students will have individual turns to demonstrate progress and understanding. Parents can also assess their own child's progress as they become more independent during their participation in class as well as how they are using learned information outside of class.

Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 2

Beginner Level

Welcome to this dynamic language learning course! In this class, you will learn important concepts such as the days of the week, months of the year, how to read and write the date, numbers, colors, shapes, counting, number order, letter names and sounds, rhyming and word reading and recognition. You will have daily practice to improve your skills in this new language which includes simple conversation.

During this class, I will be using slides to ensure that learners can clearly see the information. I will also be using my hands, facial expressions, voice intonation, and body movements to both engage and help students learn and understand what is being taught. Moreover, I will use chanting, rhyming, singing, and a lot of call and response activities to make learning fun and interactive. You will constantly interact with your classmates and myself throughout the lesson.

Profile

Teacher expertise and credentials

I have completed 15 post secondary credits in the Arabic language at North Central University and The University of Minnesota. I am mostly self-taught in each of the languages that I learn so I meet regularly  with tutors and colleagues to increase  my skills and knowledge in this subject as well as to gain experience with various spoken dialects. 

I have been teaching basic Arabic reading and writing skills for 15 years. I taught Arabic to children in grades Pre-K through grade 2 at a charter school for four years as well as a private school for 14 years. I have been teaching Arabic on Outschool for 5 years. I currently speak and teach Modern Standard Arabic.
