Arabic School Update – April 2021

The TLAC Arabic school kicked off the spring semester with a clear mission for our school: We
want to help learners acquire the Arabic language within a creative and fun environment
conducive to learning.

Our quality programs provide learners with the required skills to communicate freely
using the Lebanese dialect as well as basic reading and writing skills that allow them to connect
to their Lebanese culture and become active participants within their Lebanese community.
In order to fulfill this mission, the TLAC education team is working with a consultant
from Lebanon in order to build a solid curriculum that caters to the needs of our students. We
will host a workshop in May to introduce learners’ parents to our consultant Manal Shamma
Boustany, an experienced educator in teaching Arabic as a foreign language, as well as the work
we have been doing this semester. Stay tuned!
