Teaching Arabic As a Second Language | Muntasir Al Hamad
Muntasir Al Hamad joins us on the media majlis museum podcast to talk about teaching Arabic as a second language. We talk about designing language, teaching curricula, and working with students of different native languages, while tackling the nuances of amiyya, fasiha and fusha. We get some of the local flavor that dialects offer us through language, and take a look at a 600-year-old manuscript from Ottoman Turkey that addresses learning Arabic as a non-native speaker.
Muntasir Al Hamad is a specialist in comparative Semitic languages syntax and grammar, currently an associate professor at Qatar University who is also working at its Arabic for Non-Native Speakers Center.
