Interested in joining a tight-knit community of peers and professors while learning to connect with millions worldwide? Consider enrolling in Immersive Arabic I this fall. Arabic is a language spoken by over 400 million people, opening doors to culture and community.
In just one semester, intensive Arabic courses cover language and culture extensively. Students co-majoring in Middle East studies have access to unique scholarship opportunities, and all Arabic students have access to study abroad programs in Arab countries.
Learning a language is enjoyable and effective in a friendly community of highly qualified professors. Arabic courses have been praised for their accessibility and engagement. Benefits of the Arabic section include personalized support, tailored resources and constant guidance.
Students from Hawraa Alzouwain's Immersive Arabic I course said, "Arabic is challenging, but she [Alzouwain] makes it incredibly easier by working with us so much and even creating new worksheets and practices for what we are specifically struggling on," and "Dr. Alzouwain is an incredible professor who goes above and beyond to see her students succeed. You can clearly tell that she is passionate about the Arabic language, and because of that, does her best to make sure everyone in her class develops an appreciation for it. I would highly recommend Dr. Alzouwain's class to anyone looking to take a language class at UARK.شكراً يا أستاذة حوراء"
