“The program contributed to changing my life for the better!”

With these words, Basheer Abdullah tells his story with Leaders for Future scholarship provided by Tawakkol Karman Foundation.

Basheer says:

My experience with the English language scholarship provided by Tawakkol Karman Foundation was amazing and incredibly beneficial. From the very first day of the program, my life completely changed. I started dedicating an hour every day, in addition to the three hours I spent with my colleagues in the program, to review lessons and achieve the maximum benefit.

As a result, I saw noticeable progress in my English skills day after day. After a few months, my self-confidence increased, and I could clearly see the difference before and after joining the program. In terms of speaking, I became able to speak clearly and fluently, whereas I used to be afraid to speak English with my colleagues or even with myself.

This program greatly impacted the development of my English skills. There was a strong focus on speaking, listening, and writing, and I would spend long hours daily interacting with the teacher and my peers in English. These continuous experiences helped increase my confidence in using the language and improve my communication skills.

My university studies were one of the challenges I faced before the program, as the curriculum was in English, and I struggled with research and reading. However, with my commitment to this program, I was able to overcome these challenges, and my university studies became easier and more enjoyable.

I achieved many professional and academic goals during my studies in the program. I developed strong communication skills, along with improved writing and reading abilities. I gained a better understanding of other cultures by interacting with colleagues from various nationalities. I also gained a wealth of information, experiences, and insights through the English language program and its accompanying courses, which included training for entering the job market and other courses that I hope will help improve my job prospects after graduation and even open doors to further my educational journey.

After completing my studies in the program, I will feel confident in myself. The joy I feel cannot fully express my emotions towards this program. I have witnessed a remarkable change that has greatly impacted both my personal and professional life. I highly appreciate the quality and benefits of this program, as the personal development I achieved in communication skills, building relationships, and learning negotiation skills is just one example of the many benefits this program offers.
