Maryait Khader

Ustaadha Maryait is a phenomenal professor. She's great at helping you understand foundational material and so compassionate. She has a lot of love for her students. Also, she had a couple classes on ammiye/ collloquial which I really liked, because its the way people actually communicate and not overly formal like fusha. she made arabic feel so much more approachable and was tuned into what the class needed, e.g. would slow down if she felt we weren't able to match the pace.

Prof. Khader is an excellent teacher—enthusiastic, clear, and supportive. Readings and films were engaging, workload was light, and grading fair. Discussions were thoughtful and valuable. Highly recommend this class for anyone interested in culture and politics.

I took this class as a continuation of Arabic 101. I had a ton of fun in Arabic 101 with Ustaadah Maryait, and so going into Arabic 102, I had high expectations, and she proved that she clearly knows what she is teaching, and her engagement and lovely care she shows in the class demonstrate she has a passion for the language.
