Abstract:
This study is aimed to identify the challenges faced by non mowlavies those who
were selected for Arabic course at South Eastern University from schools.
Qualitative method was carried out by the researchers which includes primary and
secondary data sources. To obtain primary data 100 students were selected
randomly and the questionnaire issued among them. The questioner contains the
questions to achieve the research objective of this study. And the secondary data
was collected from journals, online research articles, newspapers, and books.
Descriptive statistical techniques were used throughout the MS office 2016 and
Excel. The finding of this study indicated that Arabic knowledge of school A/L
students is an early stage of the knowledge. Although the lectures conducted at
the university by both languages Tamil and Arabic, however, the examination
conducted by Arabic, therefore they were not able to face the examination
properly. 70 percent of the students expressed their view on this matter. The above
situation led to the failure of the students to score the best marks in the
examination and they did not get 1st class too. At present the Students selected for
Arabic course based on low Z - Score. This makes difficult for them to expert in
Arabic language. So, score point of those who are selected into the FIA, should be
increased. Further the researchers also suggest that all lectures should be conduct
separately for school students, to establish a language lab and provide language
training, use modern learning materials, video to make Arabic learners and audio
synthesis of conversation.
