Priority for Arabic at American Academy

One of the primary topics discussed during the meeting was the level of Arabic on offer at AAG. Delice said she recognises the importance of emphasising this area of study. “It is crucial that Arabic is a focus for our students, many of whom will be spending many years here, making their homes here and becoming active participants in the region. Gulf heritage is important and we insist that our girls' Arabic skills be superior. Therefore, the teachers we recruit are highly qualified to address this requirement.”
