TAFL Teaching Arabic as a Foreign Language: corso al Cairo
Published on 01/03/2023
TAFL Teaching Arabic as a Foreign Language
From Sunday 11 till Tuesday 20 June 2023, NVIC organizes a new edition of the TAFL course. This intensive, interactive course is developed for (future) teachers of Arabic. It addresses both the practical aspects of teaching Arabic as a foreign language as well as the underlying linguistic and cognitive processes.
Course description
The course will start with theories of second-language acquisition and a theoretical background on methods of teaching foreign languages, before moving to the practical aspects of teaching the four language skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking). In addition, it will focus on a number of important questions confronting the teacher of Arabic as a foreign language, such as teaching grammar, designing a syllabus, and writing lesson plans.
"I experienced the TAFL course as quite intensive, but I also enjoyed it thoroughly and learned a lot from it, both from the inspiring and competent teachers as well as from my fellow students."
Objectives
- To help the participants enhance their teaching skills based on recent research on foreign language teaching.
- To familiarize participants with different approaches and methods for teaching foreign languages in general and Arabic in particular.
- To provide participants with knowledge of key concepts and recent discussions regarding the process of teaching Arabic to non-native speakers.
- To familiarize the participants with strategy-based learning.
- To discuss strategies for feedback and evaluation of the various skills in an Arabic as a Foreign Language class.
- To help participants to note the challenges teachers of Arabic face today.
Target group
The course is aimed at teachers of Arabic (or future teachers of Arabic) with varying levels of experience (teaching experience not required), who are interested in developing and enhancing their teaching skills in the framework of the latest trends in foreign language teaching. A BA in Arabic Studies (or similar) is required.
Instructors
Adel Abdelmoneim and Heba El-Ramly teach Egyptian Colloquial and Modern Standard Arabic to Bachelor and Master Students at the Netherlands-Flemish Institute. They rely not only on their classroom experience but are formally trained in TAFL as well.
"The TAFL course exceeded my expectations in terms of information and insight, Adel and Heba are two really talented instructors."
Practical information
The course is held from 11 till 20 June 2023. The deadline for registration is 15 April 2023.
The course equals 5 ECTS credits. Please consult your own institution if you want to validate these.
The course fee is EUR 600 for participants affiliated to institutions supporting the NVIC and EUR 650 for non-affiliated participants.
An 'early bird' discount of EUR 50 is offered to participants applying and paying their fees before 1 April 2023.
To ensure optimal class interaction we will allow a maximum of 10 people to enter this course.
