Dear Program Director,

I am writing on behalf of *Taa Marbouta Language Centre*, based in *Tunis,
Tunisia*, to introduce our immersive Arabic programs and to explore
potential collaboration with the *Department of Humanities (Arabic and
Islamic Studies)* at the *Università degli Studi di Pavia*.

Our centre offers:

   -

   Intensive *Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)* and *Tunisian Arabic (Derja)*
   courses (four-week, 80-hour sessions)
   -

   *Internship placements* with NGOs, cultural institutions, and academic
   organizations
   -

   *Full cultural immersion*, including accommodation, airport transfers,
   local transport assistance, and curated excursions

We have already *welcomed students from Italy and other European countries*
who joined our programs to strengthen their Arabic proficiency and
experience the language in its cultural and social context. Their feedback
highlights that *Tunisia’s proximity, shared Mediterranean heritage, and
linguistic diversity* make it an ideal setting for both academic study and
experiential learning.

We noted that *the University of Pavia’s Department of Humanities* offers
excellent programs in Arabic and Islamic studies, combining linguistic
training with historical and cultural analysis. However, *Tunisia—an
essential centre of Maghrebi Arabic and Arab intellectual heritage—is not
yet among your structured study-abroad destinations*, despite its
accessibility, safety, and strong educational infrastructure.

We believe our programs would *complement your department’s academic and
international objectives* by offering a *North African immersion experience*,
enabling students to study *Maghrebi Arabic*, develop *intercultural
communication skills*, and participate in *internships or research-based
projects* consistent with Pavia’s commitment to global education and
cultural understanding.

May we arrange a short online meeting to discuss potential collaboration
opportunities, including *credit transfer, Erasmus+ partnerships, tailored
student cohorts, and internship placements*?

Sincerely,
*Craig Browne*
