Teaching Arabic
Description
Said Benchama is a class teacher at Bristol Metropolitan Academy, teaching French and Arabic languages. We see him teach an Arabic lesson to a Year 8 class which includes students from Britain, Somali, India, Albania and the Philippines. Said shares with us some strategies for teaching diverse classes where the pupils English language capability might not be so good, and offers helpful advice to teachers in similar circumstances. The role of the support teacher in the lesson is crucial in helping a section of Somali children who speak almost no English.
