Homework
1-2 hours per week. Homework assignments will vary based on the learning objectives and individual progress. They may include activities such as: * Vocabulary Practice: Reviewing and memorizing new vocabulary words and their meanings. * Grammar Exercises: Applying learned grammar rules through exercises and sentence construction. * Writing Assignments: Completing short writing assignments to reinforce language skills and practice sentence structure. * Reading Comprehension: Reading texts or passages to improve reading skills and comprehension. * Pronunciation and Listening Practice: Engaging with audio materials or recordings to enhance pronunciation and listening abilities. The time required for homework completion will depend on the complexity of the tasks and individual learning speed. On average, students can expect to spend approximately 1-2 hours per week on homework. * For reading assignments, the number of pages will vary depending on the level of the class. In the beginning stages, learners may be expected to read shorter passages or texts of around 1-2 pages. As the course progresses, the length of assigned readings may increase to approximately 3-5 pages. The focus is on gradual progression and comprehension rather than the quantity of pages.Assessment
Learner progress is assessed through a combination of methods to ensure a comprehensive evaluation. These assessment methods may include: * Informal Assessments: Ongoing assessments conducted during sessions to gauge understanding, participation, and mastery of specific topics. This can include question-and-answer sessions, discussions, and interactive activities. * Assignments and Homework: Regularly assigned homework and exercises will assess the application of knowledge and skills acquired in class. * Quizzes and Tests: Periodic quizzes and tests to evaluate comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, reading, and writing skills. * Speaking Assessments: Conversational assessments to evaluate oral proficiency, pronunciation, and ability to express ideas and engage in basic conversations. * Written Assessments: Written assignments or compositions that assess writing skills, grammar, vocabulary usage, and overall language proficiency. Learners will receive feedback on their progress throughout the course to track their development and identify areas for improvement.Class Experience
With a student-centered teaching style, I tailor the lessons to meet each learner's needs and pace of learning, fostering a supportive and encouraging environment. We will cover a wide range of topics to ensure comprehensive language development, including vocabulary building, grammar rules, pronunciation, reading comprehension, writing skills, and cultural insights. The class is structured to provide a well-rounded learning experience, balancing theoretical knowledge and practical application. I incorporate a variety of teaching methods, including interactive exercises, role-playing, multimedia resources such as slides and video clips, engaging discussions, and language games to make the learning process enjoyable and effective. No prior experience or knowledge of Arabic is required to sign up. I welcome students of all levels, whether they are complete beginners or have some prior exposure to the language. This class is designed to accommodate learners at different starting points, ensuring a smooth progression and a solid foundation for all students. Before our first class together, I will send a brief assessment to gauge at what level the student is starting at and to proper tailor my lessons based on what they need the greatest help with.

I attended one of the best language schools there is, the Defense Language Institute, where students are trained to fluency in a language in less than two years.
