Saudi Arabia's Experience in Language Volunteering: Teaching the Arabic Language to Non-Native Speakers as a Model

Abstract

The first thing that comes to mind when hearing the word "volunteer" is those charitable initiatives carried out by young people, particularly for non-profit purposes, contributing to preserving the environment or helping the poor and needy. It is a noble idea that has existed since the formation of human societies and has been driven by the inability of governments and official bodies to meet all the needs of society. Consequently, efforts have been made to promote positive behaviors towards volunteer work in all fields, to the extent that it has become like a nutritional supplement, providing society with additional strength to continue and raising its immunity.
