Fanar is free for conversational Arabic but they may not have a course right now. Whatever you do, if you want to speak Arabic, take conversational, colloquial khaleeji Arabic (Gulf Arabic), Do not get sucked into reading and writing.

I saw in the Gulf times Al Fanar the spiral building on the Corniche is running some course in Arabic for beginners, used to be free, but now the course is at QR300.
