Dubai Forums Dubai Business Dubai Business Talk

Hi,

I am thinking of offering online tutoring classes in computer science, more of a "private college course" than of traditional tutoring to college students in UAE who speak can speak fluent enough English. The idea is to make an argument along the lines of "local colleges don't teach that great, and I will teach based on published MIT (or something) curriculum". So my question is, how do I advertize such a business to the target audience?

I would imagine that one way would be to post an ad in Arabic on forums frequented by students of technical colleges. Unfortunately, I don't speak Arabic Smile. Well, within the context of this notion, does it make sense? Are there such forums where I could post (let's say if I hire an Arabic speaker to handle the details)? Would such an ad for programming tutoring be allowed on such a forum?

Also, are there other avenues for such advertizement? Is there some Arabic language equivalent of Yellow Pages or of tutoring agencies in Dubai?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Michael

Free advertising boards can be of some help as well.
