Question Teaching in the Middle East

Hi everybody
I find this quite exciting having to talk to you all. I am a New Zealand Maori, and no I do not do the Haka, that is done by men only. I am a qualified teacher with a Teaching Diploma, BA in Education, have only just applied to do the ESL Certificate online. My present position is Dean of Year 9, 12 students in the school. I am seeking a position in the Middle East, why? because I am interested in their culture, and I am wanting to travel and get paid for it.
I would appreciate any feedback pertaining to teaching in the Middle East.

Thanks

Re: Teaching in the Middle East

Middle East sounds great. The schools there offer a heap of benefits and tax free salaries. You are really looked after, but they demand quality applicants, and it seems you fit the bill.

Was in Bahrain a bit, and not much there once you get outside the city. Just dessert. The city though is wonderfully green.

Saudi Arabia seems to always advertise for teachers.

Have fun!

Re: Teaching in the Middle East

Kia ora! Good luck with whichever position you get! I have a Maori lady friend teaching in Dubai and she's loving it there. it might pay to go to the more moderate Arab states as their attitude towards women are a bit more liberal.
Take care and let us know how you're doing!
