Awful
If you want to learn arabic from Prof. Saad, don't bother paying for a class. You can just buy the book because it's all he uses as a reference point. He can't even control any of the fluent arabic speakers in class who talk so loud that they drown him out. He doesn't teach the whole alpha. He loses his temper if you ask too many questions. In conclusion, I want a refund.
Awesome
One of the best language professor I have ever had in university, because most other professors would never go out of their way to help students. He cares a lot about what his students are learning. The one criticism I have is that the course is so fast paced that you don't get quiz grades until the end of the semester. Just take the class with him and you'll do just fine.
Awesome
Prof. Saad is a positive prof who really tries his best to teach the class. He's very caring and great! I'd honestly take another class with him!!
