Hi All,
I am currently is in the slow process of being recruited by ARAMCO..Thanks to all great posts from wonderful people here that really helped a lot. Actually , I have some questions that I wish anybody answers me: 1-My wife doesn't speak English that much. Is there an English language training centers that she can attend on her own or not? 2- Is there an Arabian community is Aramco Compounds? I often see discussions about western people activities but i couldn't find any Arabian groups... I find it more easily for my wife to hang out with people that speaks her mother language.

Although, it seems like only Westerners in the groups, the groups are made up of all the different nationalities on compound.
There is however an Arab-speaking Women's Group in DHA.
There are ESL (English As a Second Language) adult classes for women offered through DHA's Adult Education Department. These classes have a fee and are open to 11+ employees and wives. You can get information on these after you arrive.

As vpainter said, reading these forums may give a slightly misleading picture of the demographics on camp.
I doubt that you'll find any activity group on camp that does not have a decent proportion of Arabic speakers in it (sometimes the majority).
