10/11/24, 10:53 AM Sharjah Ruler attends International Forum of Arabic Language Teachers

During her speech, she announced the launch of "Passion for Arabic," which is

Sharjah's approach to teaching and learning Arabic for native speakers and non-

native speakers. She explained that this name was derived from the passion of the

educational community including mothers, fathers, teachers, and students for the

Arabic language.

She stated, " The letter 'Sheen' signifies inclusivity in caring for and meeting the

needs of Arabic language learners. The letter 'Ghayn' refers to instilling a sense of

belonging, loyalty, and commitment to the values and traditions represented by the

Arabic language. As for the letter 'Fa',' it represents the diverse arts and

contemporary tools with references from dictionaries and sources, deepened by

research and scientific studies to sustain the love for the Arabic language."

The Chairperson of the Sharjah Private Education Authority highlighted in her
speech a number of achievements made by the authority in the field of the Arabic

language during the recent period. Among these achievements were the results of
the standardized Arabic language proficiency tests "TALA" for native speakers,

which assess progress in reading comprehension and writing skills. Students in
Sharjah's private schools in the academic year 2023-2024 achieved levels above

average in all educational stages.
