As a beginner in the corpus linguistics world, I started off not knowing anything about it and ended the semester with a great amount of information. I believe it made me remain self-motivated throughout the semester as there were various references to learn the material. Furthermore, this course is equally effective as a face-to-face course or online since we did both. Dr Maha has done such a great job in guiding us and delivering the course. She is very patient and very helpful. I am quite thankful for the amount of knowledge I gained from her.

Starting off, with everything going on in the world and how it affects everyone in certain ways, of course it was challenging for me and there were some hardships, but overall this course taught me so much that has improved my skills to the better. Because of this course and the continues support and guidance of Dr. Maha I now know so much stuff about corpus that will help me in the future. This experience taught me a lot. I’m so grateful for everything you have done for us Dr. Maha.

This course was completely new to me and challenging. I was intimidated at first and on the fence of dropping this semester. but when I saw how caring, passionate, unending support and guidance of yours.  I knew I would be in safe, prosperous and supportive environment. Now I can say I'm eager to employ corpus in my future projects knowing that I was taught by the best. My gratitude to you for all you have done, which I will never forget. I truly appreciate you and your time you spent helping me in many occasions. thank you very much for the course it made realize getting out from my comfort zone isn't always a bad thing.  Thanks for listening to our off-topic debates, caring to know our inputs on different matters and your genuine soul. You changed the game of traditional teaching.

Even though this course was very new to me and i did find it challenging to comprehend it at first, i believe that Dr.maha did a great job in giving it. The teaching techniques she used were very creative and diverse  and we, as students, had a chance to be exposed to different learning  experiences, such as peer review, research skills, presenting and communication skills, class discussions despite the pandemic and the conditions we were going through. I would say that I am very thankful to Dr. Maha for this experience and I am very impressed by the outcomes of this course.

Before talking about my experience, I do thankful to My dear doctor Maha Al-harithy for her great enthusiasm, support, and readiness to answer any questions we meet in the class or outside of the class. Because of your hardworking and patience, we have overcome all the difficulties faced in this course. Thank you again and again.

This course not new to me, I have had learned this course before. But my knowledge about this course at a surface level. After joining this course with Mrs. Maha, I learn it more deeply both from the theoretical part and the practical part. After finishing this course under the guidance of Dr. Maha, I found that I learned a lot about this course especially the project, from the project I dealt with one of my most difficulties in translation which confused me from the BA degree. And it still will help me in my other courses. Again, Thank you, Dr. Maha.

So proud and glad to join this fruitful and productive course. We literally started from the scratch. We can tell, by the end of the course, that we acquired research skills since we went through every step of the research alongside with our instructor’s constant guidance and support. We proudly used SauLTC in our research papers. Moreover, we experienced lots of activities that enriched our discussion and critical skills such as: peer review, panels discussion and presenting posters.
In addition to the clear picture of the theoretical and practical sides of Corpus Linguistics field. Not to mention its beneficial role for us as translators abd translation researchers.

I truly do believe that Dr. Maha, with her kind support and encouragement, has led us to achieve all this. So grateful..

As a new course to be taken and the first to start with in the program, it was a unique experience. It felt challenging and overwhelming. Then, through your continuous support and humble guidance we mastered it. Now I can share my knowledge with confidence as I’m, proudly, eager to introduce others to corpora. The course material was fruitful and the activity/assessment methods varied. The class environment was of high expectations and supportive. I’m sure this course, along others, will add so much to the future translation students. I hope they sight its clear vision and goals from the beginning.
Thank you doctor for being patient, determined, humble, and considerate. Thank you for believing in us.

I really enjoyed this course. Although it was a bit challenging at the beginning knowing nothing about the corpus, with your guidance I became very interested and eager to learn more. I am very sure that I will keep and use what I have learned throughout my studies. Moreover, I believe that I have learned so much more than what is written in books, it helped me to wider the scope of my thinking and re-identify my limitations. Doing the research was my favorite part of this course. I liked that you exposed us to different means to presents our research (e.g., the parallel discussion, posters, etc.) that are crucial for us as master’s degree students. Overall, I am super thankful for the work that you have put into this course, your passion for corpus has for sure transferred to us.

Studying corpus was such a new area of study that I’ve never been exposed to . It is a challenging yet an interesting topic to work with, and I believe achievement is already reached by learning this course.

The course has been an enriching experience to say the least. I started not knowing what a corpus is and ended up being eager to use it for future projects. I like that we were exposed to new means of assessment and activities (making posters, panel discussion, peer review...etc), it made the experience more enjoyable and fruitful. My favorite part of the course was writing the research paper along with everything that went into it. I also really appreciate the instructor’s sincerity and passion which was definitely infectious.
