<br style="font-size:13.333333969116211px;font-family:arial,sans-serif">Dear Arabic teachers and students,<br><br>We are pleased to announce the opening of Al-Mashriq Center for Arabic Instruction, a new language center in Amman, Jordan. <br>
<br>Modeled after the Arabic program at Cornell University, the curriculum at Al-Mashriq differs radically from traditional Arabic-as-a-foreign-language programs through its integration of colloquial Arabic with Modern Standard Arabic in a way that reflects the use of the language by native speakers. In all of our classes, we use Levantine Arabic for ordinary conversation and discussion and MSA for reading, writing and formal speech. The Arabic classes at Al-Mashriq act as a bridge, connecting our students to the Arabic-speaking environment around them - everything learned in the classroom is practiced with native speakers outside of it.<br>
<br>For more information about the Center, including how to apply, please visit our website at <a href="http://www.almashriqcenter.com" target="_blank">www.almashriqcenter.com</a>.<br><br>Sincerely,<br><br>Emily Koppelman, Communications & Student Affairs Director<br>
Al-Mashriq Center for Arabic Instruction<br>Queen Rania Street<br>Amman, Jordan<br>Telephone: <a href="tel:%2B962790886394" value="+962790886394" target="_blank">+962790886394</a><br><a href="mailto:emily@almashriqcenter.com" target="_blank">emily@almashriqcenter.com</a><div>
