If you do go to Syria and especially Damascus, there's a bookshop on Qaimaryeh (the main street in the Old City of Damascus that isn't Straight Street) called Shado bookshop, and the shop owner offers quite good tuition for a reasonable price (in dialectal). I also have the details of an excellent MSA private teacher if you're looking at private lessons (great complement if you study at the university), and if you can choose where to study, the university is the most famous place, but Abu Nour is meant to be excellent, and really cheap (I think it's something like $100/month). 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

I'm the worst teammate ever! I have been so bad about studying lately. The semester got
real busy real fast. I just got back an Arabic test that I did awful on (I got a C). I really need to step it up, starting today. I'm going to work on reading a children's book now. Dutch is going to have to be on the back burner until after finals in May. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Sounds difficult! I think I give my own Arabic a C right now too if it makes you feel any better! :) Good luck and don't give up :)

I'm finally done with the semester and back home, so it's time to begin seriously
studying Arabic on my own again (not just in the classroom). It's so easy for to me to become overwhelmed during the semester, but now I have no excuse. I'm going to come up with some sort of study plan and update! 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Yes, please update, I need motivation and ideas for my Arabic too! Hope your semester went well anyway :)

It's been a while, but I'm back! I've been interning since I got out of school in May
and soon after decided to take a night class. It made for some very long days (up at 6 am and home from my class at 10:30 pm) but now I'm finally back to a normal schedule. I'm hoping that before school starts (Aug 24), I can accomplish something for languages. Over the weekend I did Pimsleur units 1-3 for Dutch and I signed up for Skype lessons for Arabic. I really just want someone to practice speaking with before school starts while I go over grammar, vocab and such on my own. I asked my dad at dinner the other day if he would speak Dutch with me for practice after I study a bit more and he said "Nee". When I pouted and asked why, he said he was saying the Korean "ne" (so, yes!!) which is a bit of a joke since I was born in Korea. So, now I have my materials together and a person to speak with for each language. I'm ready to finally take advantage of the rest of my summer.

Today I did unit 4 for Pimsleur Dutch. Tomorrow is my first Skype lesson for Arabic. I'm
excited and a little nervous. I definitely need to skim through some Al Kitaab beforehand. 1 person has voted this message useful |
