There are always two sides to a coin. So there are always pros and cons for anything you invest yourself in. It is also equally important for you to know both these sides, as it can help you decide your path. The one which is most beneficial is the one you should opt for. Always make a wise decision for a wise outcome.
Here in this article, I will tell you about the pros and cons of learning Arabic online as well as offline. Learning Arabic is becoming an integral part of the training system today. This royal language is in huge demand. Since things are getting better with the covid-19, there is a possibility to take training offline as well. So here I present this article to answer your unasked questions about which is better online or offline. Let’s start with the pros and cons of learning Arabic online. Considering the present scenario much importance is given to the online system.
1) You save yourself from getting infected due to the coronavirus.
2) You are in the comfort zone of your home.
3) Many times we are provided with recordings of lectures, which makes the revision part easy.
4) We can have access to trainers who belong to other parts of the country or some other country. Arabic is a language that can only be explained or taught by specific experts. It is not necessary to have that expert in your area or somewhere near you. They are located in different places all over. If you opt for learning Arabic online, you get to learn from these experts with ease.
5) Time flexibility: this benefit helps you with your time management. You can select the slots when you are free. This has become especially beneficial for people who work or for housewives who are busy at particular time slots. Especially morning when it is the time most platforms offer their course timings. At that time such people are busy. So they have this flexibility to choose a time wherein they are free and also the days.
6) Even busy people can join the course: as I told you in the previous point you have time flexibility which means that you can take up a trainer according to your time convenience, and learn what you couldn’t learn till now.
7) Maintain your speed: some of you are slow, while some are quick at learning. Online courses are tamed according to your speed of grasping things. If you do it quickly you learn more things in that stipulated time.
8) Preference curriculum: this is yet again another interesting thing which is offered to you. You get to decide what you want to learn in Arabic. If you know the basics, you can start from the part that you do not know. You can also tell your trainer what needs to be covered in the course, and it will be done for you.
1) Difficulty in understanding.
2) No laptop or desktop available.
3) Mishear a pronunciation.
4) Lack of strictness.
5) Lack of concentration.
6) Lack of writing skills.
1) Better understanding: offline mode is any time better in learning languages like Arabic. It is easier to understand the sound of each letter. Also Arabic requires you to speak a letter in a particular way, so that would be easy to learn in offline mode. You can see clearly how to twist the languages or move your lips for particular pronunciations.
2) Improved writing skills: Arabic requires good writing training as well. It is important that someone guides you to write it, so that the curves and other things of the writing part are maintained.
3) Increase in knowledge: I say this because, when we are learning offline, we automatically have access to the library which usually a person will not go for. Books are a better way of learning something quickly.
4) Keen observation: you concentrate better when the trainer is right in front of you, staring at you if required. It helps you keep your eyes on the subject.
CONS:
There aren’t actually any important cons of learning Arabic offline. The only thing would be that you will have to follow a particular timetable. The convenience part goes missing here. You will have to travel and wouldn’t be able to get access to the institute or platform you want to. You will have to adjust to the training centers around you.
