ASU is currently offering English lessons for faculty wishing to improve their language proficiency.  Interested lecturers and professors took an online vocabulary test and completed a registration form to decide their class placement.  There are now two classes of different English levels running on Thursdays for an hour each week, and ten faculty (who teach in Arabic) are participating.  So far they have read short biographies of Christiane Amanpour from CNN and Neil Armstrong, astronaut and professor.  They have also read and discussed articles about an illiterate teacher and unusual ways of improving student behavior, with some very novel suggestions!  Pictured are the two classes with teacher, Yvonne Johnson.
