Prof Najwa was the sweetest prof and person I've ever had. You can tell she really cares about her students and their learning. She is very knowledgable in Arabic and is good at teaching it to beginners. You NEED the textbook, the class is based on it. She also takes attendance for the lectures and DGD, which is easy marks. Overall a great class!

Najwa is such a gem! Seriously, the best professor out there. She is so kind, always encouraging and really makes you want to do well in her class. Honestly, Arabic is NOT easy but this prof definitely helps. I wish she could teach every single one of my Arabic classes because I'm going to miss her next semester.

Comment:

Professor Najwa is an extremely kind, caring, and compassionate person. She tries to know all of her students' abilities and personalities, so that she can adapt to them and ease the learning process. ARB1911 is NOT and easy course, but Dr. Garzouzi makes it easy, fun, and interesting. I recommend her for all ARB courses.

Awesome prof!!! Very patient and helpful. I took three classes with her and I would take more if I could. A lot of material to cover, and if she sees that you're not giving enough effort, it might affect your final mark. Overall, I recommend her classes to everyone.

Great proff. She really cares about her students and is always ready and willing to help. Her exams and midterms are always straightforward exactly like what she says in class. She is always smiling and patient with the students. The only down side is that she knows NOTHING about tech ( couldn't properly use the DVD that came with the book). Also this course does have a large workload and lots of memorizing but is extremely enjoyable if u like learning new languages

Najwa is a very kind person and a fantastic professor. The class is not easy (unless you already speak arabic), there is a large course load (homework, memorization, studying, assignments) but she makes it fun and interesting. She gets to know the level of every student and remains conscious of this throughout the course. Highly recommended.

yes she is very nice and a perfect teacher for beginner arabic, but i found these ratings to portray the class much easier than it is, it is demanding and challenging and a good memory is needed! its not as easy as it sounds BUT it is veryyy interesting and i've learned a lot! ps - if you know arabic don't take the class you cheaters :(
