Determine which program suits your learning style best. Purchase, subscribe to, sign up for, or download any lessons that are part of the program. The program you choose depends on the level of proficiency you require, the time frame in which you need to learn the language as well as your discipline for the study.
Enroll in the Arabic courses or subscribe to the Arabic channels to begin learning the language with other users. Most of the programs allow interaction with native speakers of the Arabic language to assist you with your progress.
Search the website for native Arabic speakers to build your network of supporters and teachers. Websites, such as Livemocha, allow you to trade services helping others learn your native language while they help you learn Arabic.
Continue studying and communicating based on the program you have elected to enroll in. Submit your work for your guide, peers or study partners to critique and offer help and show you the corrections that need to be made.
Practice reading Arabic newspapers online and Arabic websites available on the Web. Memorize words for faster and more proficient reading.
Test yourself periodically by asking members of the site who are helping you to check your work. Send them emails or leave messages in Arabic along with the English translation (or their native language in which you have been conversing) and ask them to check and correct your work. Alternatively, websites such as Lang-8, allow you to keep a journal in Arabic and users of the site will correct your work for you to help you obtain fluency.
