Education of Qatar & U.K


Education of Qatar & U.K

There are little differences between Qatar education and U.K education such as time.In Qatar all schools start at 7:00AM to 1:45PM and we have two break.In the U.the schools start at 9:00AM and finish at 3:00 PM. In Qatar the boys have there own school and the girls  have there own school ,but in the U.the boys and the girls are in the same school. However I think the subjects are the same in Qatar and the U.K except Arabic and Islam. In the U.K student have to wear uniforms and in Qatar are the same.

Culture Shock

Culture Shock



A lot of people got culture shock when they move to new county.When I traveled to the UK I didn't get
culture shock.However I'm from Qatar ,so there are a lot of different things between Qatar and United Kingdom , as the language , weather , currency , and the way they drive.In my country the driver seat is in the left but on the UK the driver seat is on the right , so I always get confuse . Second thing is weather in Qatar the weather is hot and i got use to it but in the UK weather is very cold and you don't know when it will rain. Also the language was problem to me because my native language is Arabic but in the UK they speak English ,so I took some English courses to improve my English , so I can speck to other people. Finally I thing every one will have problem in the beginning because every thing is new to him but after that it will be ok .
