No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't understand them.

Mahmoud tried so hard to understand his clients, partners, and investors' words in English, but he couldn't understand their accents.

He had listened to many:

- Audio books in English.

- Business English podcasts.

Yet:

• He found it hard to understand their words in English.

• He got confused when they spoke English with him.

In the same way as Mahmoud, you try, but you find it hard to understand your clients, partners, and investors' English accents.

At times, you ask yourself, "Why is it so hard to understand their words in English?"

If you are a Middle Eastern founder and you want to understand your clients, partners, and investors' English accents during meetings.

You want to understand your clients, partners, and investors' words better in English, but you don't listen well to them.

99% of Middle Eastern founders who reached out to me because of their weak English skills wanted to learn how to:

- Speak.

- Read.

-Write.

They hardly spoke about learning how to listen well in English.

Learning how to listen can help you:

- Improve your weak English skills faster.

- Understand your clients, partners, and investors' different English accents.

Many times, you don't listen well during meetings, which is why you don't understand their words in English.

How can you understand their words during meetings when they don't say words like you?

1: Listen well.

2: Kindly ask the person speaking to repeat their words if you don't understand.

There is no shame in asking questions when you do not understand their accents.

3: Speak to your clients, partners, and investors in English.

4: You can start speaking to your clients, partners, and investors in English for five minutes, then ten minutes.

Every week, increase the minutes by five minutes.

5: Go to business events and connect with business owners from other countries to grow your business and increase your confidence in understanding different accents.

6: Use ten to fifteen minutes two times a week to listen to podcasts in English that are related to your business.

7: The more you listen well, the more you can understand the different English accents of your foreign clients, partners, and investors during meetings and events.
