The teacher will take them to the next level of the introductory stage, by adding new grammatical structures, verb conjugation (at the present and future tenses), and richer vocabulary, conversational skills, etc., introduced in the second part of the textbook, “Mastering Arabic I” (by Jane Wightwick and Mahmoud Gaafar, 2015 edition).
