Recensioner i media

“Never before has the need to properly transmit Arabic language and culture to new generations of students been so critical, especially in a global, post 9-11 and diverse American society. Hammami and Esmail’s research clearly demonstrates that a holistic approach is required if we are to meet this critical need. Both Arabic and non-Arabic students will benefit if educators follow their study’s recommendations.”
