"I teach Standard, Levantine and Iraqi/Gulf Arabic, mostly to beginners and elementary-level adults, with a focus on useful, conversational language so that you can go immediately to the Halal cart in your neighborhood and practice your Arabic. Within weeks, my students are able to welcome Yemeni parents to parent-teacher conferences, reassure Emirati mothers in the delivery room, and describe their family to Lebanese in-laws, just to name a few examples. Currently, I am beginning a PhD in Second Language Acquisition and Teaching of Arabic at the University of Arizona, and working as an instructor in the Flagship Arabic program.
I first learned Arabic in Peace Corps Jordan, and have an MA in Near Eastern Languages with a concentration in Arabic language from Indiana University - Bloomington with a 4.0 GPA. In 2010-2011, I received the premier CASA I Fellowship to study advanced Arabic language at American University in Cairo. I also have a Certificate of English Language Teaching for Adults (CELTA) with distinction from International House - Budapest and Cambridge University." less...
