Advanced Arabic in the Middle East

Arabic Language Center (www.arabee.info) is offering an advanced Arabic  
course this summer in the Arab Gulf region from June 15 to July 30,  
2003.

This is an advanced intensive course in the Arabic language that  
provides the opportunity to: 1) Improve on listening, reading, speaking  
and writing skills, 2) put the four skills to practice in a true  
authentic environment, 3) get the senses (seeing, smelling, tasting,  
hearing and touching) involved in experiencing the target culture.

The course is seven weeks in length and twelve contact hours per week.  
Emphasis is placed on Modern Standard Arabic (MSA). Dialect of the  
region will be introduced for familiarization. Arabic is the language  
of instructions. Level 1 (DLI skill level description), or  
intermediate-mid (ACTFL skill level description) is required upon  
registration. There will be opportunities outside of class to interact  
with expatriate and local Arabs. The schedule allows for visits to  
museums and cultural sites.

The course will be held in the Al Ain area of the United Arab  
Emirates. Al Ain is a desert oasis city less than two hours from the  
five star hotels and shopping malls of Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Traditional  
Omani villages are just a few hours away by crossing into neighboring  
Oman.
