Böcker av Karin C. Ryding

Distilling her experience in teaching Arabic, consolidating findings from second language acquisition research and applied linguistics, the author covers designing curricula, theory and methods, testing, and research, interspersing practical information with background literature in order to help teachers improve their teaching.

Equips those who work, travel, and study in Arab countries with an educated form of spoken Arabic that functions flexibly in the face of various regional colloquial variants in the Arab world.

Providing beginners in Arabic with linguistic and cultural exposure, this book consists of sixteen lessons with dialogs and exercises dealing with day-to-day scenarios: greeting people, getting a taxi, making phone calls, asking directions, discussing the weather, and effectively communicating with police and duty officers.
