About the Author
This is an invaluable contribution to the field. It will be of great interest to those hoping to train Arabic teachers or become an Arabic teacher. Absolutely a unique work!
— Lucy Thiboutot, Editor of the Arabic K-12 Bulletin
Case Method and the Arabic Teacher provides an outstanding research-based resource for methodology classes and other Arabic teacher training programs.

Recent discussions for preparing Arabic teachers overlook the essential challenges of social context, institutional constraints, and interpersonal relationships that teachers face every day. These issues are emphasized in Dr. Berbeco's text, which will provide a valuable contribution to the field, highlighting challenges that are familiar to teachers but receive far too little attention in materials for teacher preparation.
