ABOUT OUR INSTRUCTOR: Manar Harb

Arabic is my native language. Influenced by my father, I began writing poetry at an early age. In Palestine, exposure to languages is common; before turning 12, I already had heard and had some practice in French, German, Hebrew and Spanish. Moving to the United States for the first time in 2002, experiences with words and expressions came differently when interacting with Americans. Later after completing my undergraduate studies, I return to my homeland. Noticing the difference in style when using language in the workplace pushed me into researching the origins of language. Winter of 2012, I moved to Oakland to pursue my studies and develop my career in art and writing. The quest continues.
