2 of 2 reviews, written by students who took the course.

- **2020-02** — Best course and best instructor. Medium workload

- **2020-02** — Instructor is great. If you have a good Arabic level already, then I certainly recommend it. There are a lot of readings; the exams are essays that ask your opinion on certain issues from the readings, which shouldn't be hard.
