What we do
Since 2010 Language Bridges volunteer teachers, mainly university undergraduates, have delivered part-time courses in basic English language, free of charge, to migrant laborers in Qatar. So far over 250 labourers (who all attend voluntarily) have graduated from the program with increased confidence and the basic ability to break through the barriers to communication which keep them from being able to carry out basic 'survival' tasks: dealing with banks, shops, explaining health complaints, reading simple notices and instructions. In addition, the volunteers gain skills in planning communicating, and team work as they prepare and deliver the courses. Of course, this is a not for profit program.
