Arabic

Superior/Distinguished

Level Course 2011

July 11 - Aug 9

The course emphasizes development of skills in speaking, listening, reading and writing through both small group and individualized instruction, and will give students experience with MSA, Egyptian, and Levantine dialects.

During these weeks, intensive instruction will be delivered in blocks of 4 hours/day, Monday-Friday. Students will be introduced to the nature of professional level Arabic and the following skills: active listening and reading strategies, debating, adjusting for appropriate register, levels and text types of written and oral

discourse, interviewing, nuanced reading of official press and other professional documents.
Onsite instruction will be supplemented by field trips and other cultural

activities to develop expertise in specialized areas such as science, history, and politics.
This program has been custom-designed to meet the needs of highly

proficient learners (ILR2+/3 ) of Arabic striving to achieve Superior+ level or near-native proficiency, the level required to use the language competently in professional contexts.
This p

rogram is open to military personnel, US undergraduate and graduate students, working professionals, government employees and others.
Application Deadline: June 30, 2011
