Pre-departure<\/h1>\n

A brief personal bio:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

My name is Hannah Early Bagdanov and I am a graduate student in Political Science. I study Comparative Politics and International Relations. Amongst other things, I am interested in religion and politics, and am working on projects related to Christianity and politics.<\/p>\n

Why this summer language abroad opportunity is important to me:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

The SLA grant is important to me because it allows me to further my Arabic speaking, reading, and writing in an in-country context where I can practice the Levantine dialect. Specifically, because Jerusalem is home to a large population of Christians, this is a great place to study Arabic given my research interests.<\/p>\n

What I hope to achieve as a result of this summer study abroad experience:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

I hope to achieve increased exposure to the multicultural city of Jerusalem, which brings together peoples and monuments of the Abrahamic faiths. Additionally, I hope to achieve greater Arabic speaking proficiency by practicing with classmates and teachers and with vendors and shopkeepers while experiencing daily life in the city.<\/p>\n

My specific learning goals for language and intercultural learning this summer:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

1. By the end of the summer, I hope to increase my conversational comfortability and to extend conversations beyond simple sentence constructions<\/p>\n

2. By the end of the summer, I hope to expand my religious vocabulary to include vocabulary related to the practices, symbols, and monuments of the Abrahamic faiths<\/p>\n

3. By the end of the summer, I hope to take risks when practicing and increase my listening skills by learning to ask clarifying questions in Arabic before defaulting to English<\/p>\n
