answer: #Person2# tells #Person1# she and her husband moved to Beirut because they loved Arab culture and she took a year off to have a break from teaching and learn drawing. #Person1# then recommends a fantastic art teacher.
documents: #Person1#: So, how long have you been living here?
  #Person2#: About six months now.
  #Person1#: Why did you choose Beirut?
  #Person2#: Because, Mike-my husband-and I have always loved Arab culture and the language. Mike's an English teacher and he got a job here in a language school.
  #Person1#: Why did you want to take a year off?
  #Person2#: Basically I wanted a break from teaching. I love teaching children but I needed a change. Also I've been drawing and painting since I was little but I've never really had the chance to study drawing. So this seemed like the perfect opportunity to have a change and learn to draw properly.
  #Person1#: Well, I found a fantastic art teacher, called Omayma, and I've been having classes with her since October. She's great and she speaks English, which is lucky, because I don't know much Arabic yet. But I'm learning the language as quickly as I can.
  #Person2#: Is Arabic a difficult language to learn?
  #Person1#: Incredibly difficult! Especially the pronunciation. You have to learn to make a lot of new sounds.
