W: 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. M: Why did you want to take a year off? W: 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. M: 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.

Question: What does the woman want to do for a change? - Learn to dance. - Learn a new song. - Learn to draw.
