Here's how you can overcome language barriers and excel in your career while working abroad.

Language Learning: Invest time in learning the local language. Even basic proficiency can significantly improve your communication and daily interactions. Many companies offer language courses, or you can use apps like Duolingo or Rosetta Stone to practice. Engaging with local media, such as newspapers, radio, and TV, can also accelerate your learning. Professional Language Courses: Consider taking business-specific language courses that focus on the vocabulary and cultural nuances relevant to your industry. This specialized knowledge can boost your confidence in professional settings.

Language skills go hand in hand with cultural understanding if we really want to engage with others and their cultural settings. Intercultural exchanges are the way forward and make engagement equally meaningful and beneficial for all involved.

People do not care about the fluency of the language you speak because they know you are not a native they tend be positive when you try to take initiative to learn and try to speak. Well you need language anyway for your day to day needs for groceries, shopping,coffe shop so atleast when you try to learn those basic things its a good start. Moving to abroad for work doesn't mean you only focus your work and home its good practice to go out meet people and attend events even though you dont know the language there are other people like you and some others whi can speak english as well so you get to make new connections and thats a starting point of your living in abroad.

In any country, i find it important, when you are a foreigner, to show curiosity and eagerness to learn, about the culture, the people, the language, the habits. In this regard, by interacting with people, by taking language classes, and practicing with local people, your openness will be noticed and probably valued. This is quite an important element to your integration into the country, and your ability to succeed. People usually are quite encouraged by eagerness to learn, to improve, and respect.

To ne honest ,i faced the same issue in 2022 and had a terrible time but i was able to solve it . As our mother tongue is not English,we are not used to the structure of mouth while talking as a result it gets fumbled. My suggestion for newcomers- grab a book ,and read out loud very slowly and pronounce each work clearly dont try to mimic and avoid accents speak slowly

O conhecimento não precisa ser formal (como um curso, por exemplo) para que possa ser aprendido e utilizado. Pessoas que estão em lugares similares, filmes e outros programas culturais, podem lhe auxiliar no aprendizado e no suporte do aprendizado da língua.
