Contribution to the teaching profile

Mastering Colloquial Arabic is fundamental, considering that Standard Arabic is mainly used in formal situations. Any conversation in everyday life is generally conducted in Colloquial Arabic. The choice of Middle Eastern Arabic allows the student to interact in at least five countries of the area (PAlestine, Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan) and to get acquainted with other varieties of Arabic (Iraqi Arabic, Egyptian Arabic)
