The Language Center celebrated the graduation of a number of students of the Arabic language program for non-Arabic speakers who have completed their study in this semester.
Commenting on this event, Dr. Hala Al-Hamad, the assistant director of the Language Center for the Arabic Language, stressed that the center is keen to prepare an integrated program for students in order to improve their proficiency in the Arabic language, thus helping them assimilate into the local community and successfully proceed in their student career at Yarmouk University.
In their turn, a number of graduate students who came from the universities of Missouri, South Carolina, Kansas, Virginia and Georgia spoke during the ceremony about their experience of learning Arabic at Yarmouk University. They praised the efforts made by the program's facilitators who enable the students to master the Arabic language. The graduates also spoke about the extracurricular activities that contributed to their integration into the student body of the university community and how such extracurricular activities (i.e. visiting a number of monuments and archaeological sites) familiarize them with the cultural history of Jordan. After that, one of the graduates played some musical pieces expressing the graduates' thankfulness for the center and the university. At the end of the ceremony, Dr. Al-Hamad congratulated the students and bestowed the certificates to them.
