Comment:

Just OK. It was WAY boring. Online classes can be lifeless when the teachers don't upload lectures. Reading endless pages of academic essays gets real old real fast. It was easy, just DRY. I was kind of annoyed at the end, because she gave me a B+ even though I was literally 1 point off an A. That's lame in my book... just saying! Just an OK class.

This class was awesome; I learned so much. I took it online. There was a lot of reading and there were quite a few videos to watch, but they were all important and helped understand the class topics on a deeper level. No exams, just written assignments and DB posts on Blackboard.Professor was very helpful and cares about her students.She's awesome!

Comment:

I took Arabic 111, loved it, and got an A. So I assumed the next term would be easy as well. Not so much. I worked my ass off for a B and nothing really stuck. If you take this class, be sure that you understand everything PERFECTLY before you move on, because if you get behind, it's difficult to catch up.

TAKE ANY CLASS WITH HER --- I think she is the nicest/sweetest professor i have ever met. Her classes are really easy and there is really no reason why you wouldnt get an A. she is an easy grader too! i took the arabic series with her and i learned so much but at the same time it was really easy. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER

Very sweet, kind, and helpful. I took 2 terms of Arabic and a women's studies course from her and had good experiences all around. Always willing to give extra help when needed.

Took Arabic 101 via OSU's distance learning-- the course was well organized and easy. Dr. Al-Saaidi responded to e-mails in a timely manner. If you like languages and are able to study on your own this is a good class to take.

Focuses on learning, reduced intimidation of the subject. Encouraging. The curriculum is clear, expectations are clear.

A lot of helpfulness during the first term, kind of diminishes during the last term. Exams are hard. Oral tests are really nerve-racking!
