Abstract

This study investigates the challenges faced by non-native Arabic-speaking students in developing Arabic conversational skills at Prince Songkla University, Pattani Campus, Thailand. The study aims to identify students’ perspectives on Arabic conversation problems and the factors influencing these difficulties, as well as to examine statistically significant differences based on demographic and educational variables. The study employed a descriptive-analytical approach using a questionnaire distributed to a randomly selected sample of 274 students. The findings revealed that student-related factors constituted the dominant challenges, particularly students’ low motivation to speak Arabic and lack of confidence in oral communication. Environmental factors included limited family encouragement and the absence of Arabic use within the family environment, while university-related factors involved the frequent use of local languages by lecturers and peers instead of Arabic. The study also found statistically significant differences based on academic year and participation in Arabic language activities, whereas no significant differences were found based on gender, faculty, or mother tongue. Students who actively participated in Arabic language activities demonstrated more positive responses toward Arabic conversation learning. The findings indicate that improving Arabic conversational competence requires supportive communicative environments, increased opportunities for authentic Arabic interaction, communicative teaching practices, and active participation in Arabic language programs and activities both inside and outside the classroom.

Abstract

This paper aims to provide practical suggestions for teaching Arabic rhetoric to non-Arabic speaking university students. These suggestions are presented in PowerPoint slides and their use is explained in a way that is consistent with the content of the material. These suggestions were tested on two groups of students enrolled in Bachelor's programs in Sharia, Islamic Studies, and Foundations of Religion at Sultan Azlan Shah University in Malaysia. The problem with teaching non-Arabic speakers a new science in Arabic language is that their level in the language is uneven and most of them are below the required level to study a subject that requires a strong foundation in the language, especially when dealing with poetry and eloquent sayings that are the subject of rhetoric. This poses a challenge for both the teacher and the student. The study relied on a descriptive approach to create and present slides, and to explain the principles and considerations that should be taken into account. The study arrived at a number of results, the most important of which is the necessity of using these modern methods, which are no longer a luxury or a standard for evaluating the teacher alone, as the study recorded an improvement in students' understanding of rhetoric lessons after using these methods compared to not using them.
