  5. Research on Arabic Learners My thoughts Student Feedback Test spelling Don’t teach spelling Agreed Really want spelling “rules” Agreed Where am I going to get the time? Especially for ‘back to basics’? Can I remember the “rules?”
  6. Research on Arabic Learners Student Feedback Need segmentation/syllable attention KA-- TRI --NA Need to learn connections between spelling, pronunciation and rhythm Need to work on vowel blindness and deafness Need to work on Right letter, wrong place (RLWP) Different learning styles need attention (Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic, Musical, logical…..) Know there’s a problem They don’t know what the problem is Agreed
