I had Rima as an intro English teacher, and she is a very patient and friendly teacher. The class is graded decently easy, but has a decent amount of work.

Ms. Rima is awesome & made Arabic fun to learn! She's kind, funny, and cares a lot about her students. Her lectures were easy to follow and her exams and quizzes were very fair. There is daily homework, which can be challenging to stay on top of, and she does grade that based on accuracy rather than completion, so definitely put effort into that.
