Egyptian weekly lessons: Hello Egyptian students, salam :)
I have been inactive for a quite long time ... I will hopefully have more time for helping students starting from 29th July! So, I am planning to give a series of Egyptian grammar-based classes in PB classroom ... the only knowledge i assume with students is the Arabic alphabet [because teaching them online would be quite boring].
If you are planning to attend, please let me know ... I need to know class time preferences (a first suggestion is every saturday @ 5pm GMT), suggestions, etc.
Waiting your feedback ... salam :)

More details: salam,
I just found I need to give more details:

1- You can learn Arabic alphabet and reading through this free website, I find it very nice:
http://www.ukindia.com/zar1.htm
download all lessons here:
http://www.ukindia.com/zip/arab.zip

2- What I will teach here is the Egyptian dialect of Arabic (the language spoken in Egypt definately). If you want to learn the Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) ( the langue used in newspapers .. etc, for more info, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Standard_Arabic ) rather than Egyptian, I will give also MSA lessons (see http://www.phrasebase.com/forum/read.php?TID=15741 ).

3- The expression 'grammar-based classes' may be scary ... but I don't mean the classes will be on 'Egyptian Language Grammar' ... I simply extract basic and simple grammar rules and use them as 'templates' for teaching students ... I believe this is an effective and fast way of learning the language ... you can check the initial lessons plans here:

I hope thie motivates you a little :)

salam,
Mohamed

IMPORTANT: I can not access the classroom in Phrasebase! please add me to your yahoo/msn messenger : mohamed_am83 AT yahoo.com/hotmail.com ... the lesson may start late by 15 minutes or so ... I'm sorry for inconveniece ... just didn't expect the classroom would be down.

Salam,
As Chrsitiano, the student who attended the class yesterday, noticed, we had big problems ... Phrasebase classroom was down, so we had to do it through Paltalk! I apologize for all students who missed the class because of that ... the contents of the first class (and other classes) are available under:
http://areg.net.tf/ or http://areg.amaksoud.com/

For not having such mess next class, I think doing the class through Skype is the best solution, there're conference call features!
So for next class: please install Skype if u don't have it (www.skype.com) and add me to your contacts ( mohamed_am83 )
If you have any questions (about the lesson or in general) please post them here ...
salam,
Mohamed

well, since nobody appeared in the previous class, I decided to hold off the class for a while till a significant number of people get interested ... probably a good chance to add/refine the content of the lessons.

lessons: ahlan ya Mohamed!

will you be starting your skype classes again?


Mohamed
Friday 12th of January 2007 08:12:27 PM
ahlan ya Crystal,

yes at some point I will restart it insha'Allah but honestly don't know when, from one side, you used to be almost the only one who comes to the classes regularly (best student prize for you :) ), so when you stopped, I decided to hold the class off ... from the other side, I'm betting too busy these weeks with my studies, don't know when I can find time for the class. so, I will post here (and PM you) when I restart it ...
So you have been to Egypt? if yes, how was it? ;)


and how was your
