I second the view:
"I find students who worry about learning dialect completely  
incompetent in learning fusha and thus understanding
written material. ..... I do believe that dialect should be taught  
but after acquiring solid foundations in classical Arabic not at the  
beginning."

Best,

Haider Bhuiyan
