Learning English is essential for Qataris of all ages. By listening to English media, watching videos, joining social networks, making friends, or hiring a tutor, learners can enhance their skills effectively.
Are you a young Qatari boy or girl who wants to learn English? Or perhaps, you are a young adult in Qatar who feels it is important to learn and, if possible, master the English language? Maybe you are a middle aged or elderly Qatari man or woman who has this strong urge to learn English because you feel it will greatly help you professionally/socially. Or you want to learn it simply because you have developed an interest in it? One thing is for sure: learning English is no more a luxury, but a necessity these days. And you need to know the nuances of the language to perform commendably at the international arena. There are also a number of job opportunities for people who have excellent communication skills in English. Whether you have some basic knowledge of the language or it is an absolutely new for you, there are different ways that can help you learn English fast.
Do you have a habit of listening to music? Well, you can then devote some time to listen to English radio stations. Choose any program you find interesting - be it music, sports or religion, but it should be in English. Or if you watch a program on your News Channel, which you find interesting, you can listen to its podcast as well.This will help you train your ears and pick up the nuances of English without even straining yourself.
Many of the videos on YouTube are by natie English speakers — from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and so on. Watch these videos attentively and try to remember the words the speakers use. This can turn out to be an excellent coaching for you in English communication skills.
Social networking is the buzzword these days. And it is difficult to find people who are not present on any of these social platforms. Join a forum, which deals with something you find relevant and communicates in English. Read what others have written and post your own thoughts. Do not be afraid of making mistakes, as it is quite natural for any beginner. Over time, you will see that your spelling and grammar will improve dramatically.
There are many expatriates in Qatar who speak English. Try to make friends with some of them. Do you have a foreign friend who speaks English fluently? Ask her to teach you English, while you can teach her Arabic. This can help both of you to learn a new language, build a great new friendship, and know more about each others’ regions and cultures.
Illustrated books and comics are a great way to learn English, especially for beginners or those who are not fluent in English yet. Even if you do not understand particular words or phrases, you can understand more about what the author is trying to say through the pictures.
There are plenty of English speakers living and working in Qatar today who will be very happy to teach you. With a private tutor, you will be assured of individual attention and he or she can focus on particular areas where you need extra help. Further, you can easily choose a tutor who has a personality and style, which suits you. If you later feel that it is not working, you can change your tutor and find another one. Besides, if a tutor is interested in teaching English, it is more likely that he or she has a passion for the subject, which she can instill in you. This will also mean that they will pay a lot more attention to your queries and concerns. If you are too shy and afraid of interacting with too many people, then a private tutor is the best option for you, as she will give you individualized attention.
There are plenty of tutorials and classes, which teach English. This is a good alternative to engaging a private tutor. There are a few advantages of joining a class over engaging a tutor as well. One advantage is that classes usually teach many students at the same time and hence, they are likely to be cheaper than engaging a tutor. Besides, tutors in reputed classes are selected through a rigorous interview process. So, you can be assured of quality faculty in the classes. Moreover, you will also get an opportunity to interact with others who have the same passion for learning English and converse regularly with them, which will improve your English speaking skills.
