Hi fionalee,

Welcome to ½ûÂþÌìÌÃ!

I suggest you to have a look at the "Life in the United Arab Emirates" guide. There are informations and useful links that might help you in your search.

I hope you will receive some good advices from members very soon.

I wish you good luck

Thanks Christine, I really appreciate your feedback.

Fiona

Good luck with your move Fiona.  Perhaps you could apply for an admin job within the school that your daughter will attend....

Many thanks for your good wishes.. and good idea.. will check that out!!

You're welcome and let us know how you get on

hi fiona! how are you doin? best of luck on your move to dubai. there are many english speaking school,  not to worry bout that. try to look on this website for jobs. dubizzle.com. it will serve in many ways.good luck.tc.

send your girl to Mizhar academy for girls, or Latifa school for girls, or if u relocate in abu dhabi Shiekh zayed academy for girls (its safe for her, many discusting things going on among teens in mixed schools) the recruitment there is excellent. the teachers are working so hard and they are well qualified. I preffer the schools in dubai though, the one in abu dhabi they ve crammed extra courses. if u find the schools expensive then send your girl  to AL Rawafed school in abu dhabi though sorry no clue on dubai as I am a teacher working in abu dhabi at abu dhabi international private school.  I wont advise u this school because its mixed and as i said nasty things are gong on. also coordinators keep on changing during the year which doesnt make it any better for your kid.

as for an admin job use these web which I find very useful (do google them for correct address:
naukhri gulf
gulf talent
bayt.com
uae pinpoint

monster-- Watch out for scammers...DONT SEND PASSPORT COPY if they have not called. Do not make a phone call they are to call you. DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY the agreement is that they will arange for u a job and you pay them the fee after uve recieved your first salary this can be in instalments depending on your recruiter.

sabiscareers.net -- ull be happy here and u might get a discount for ur girl. (labenese schools--similar format as the school Im working for, might be slightly better but I wont bet on it because the program is double. I think people are just trying to show off that their school teachs more materials whereas the kids are about to die...)

try admin at GEMS schools Im sure ur girl might get a discount and she will be happy. Education there is not bad at all..all teachers are qualified and you have many schools that you can choose according to price.

u can also find company names and just email a CV its better if you send references along with it because no one bothers to read the cv so they see quantity and they ll be like oooooh however if you ve applied and not recieved an answer like thank u for applying 80% of the times is because they dont use email they depend on fax.

goodluck!

BAA, not sure if you can help but my son is looking for a Physics/Maths teaching job.  Any idea if your school is recruiting?

Thanks

I really dont know its summer vacation right now we will be back on the 15th.

check out Sharjaih American International School check out this web site.

Have him email his cv to all of the schools.

keep in mind two points:

-american/arab schools tend to recruit teachers in sept/aug
-if they dont respond to email he should fax.and he should repeat the process end of aug one more time there will def. be an opening.

As for salaries he will get according to the nationality if he is american he should get more then 12 000 if hes european he ll barely get 10 000.

in all cases since its an external contract he should get accomodation+ plane tickets+ health insurance.

aw and DEFINATELY HE SHOULD TRY ADEC. let him try teachaway.com. if he gets in hes salary will be more than 15000. it goes up to 20 000 but again nationality plays an important role and ofcourse where he obtained his degree. GOODLUCK!

Thank you really appreciate that.

Have a great weekend

me happy i can help.


he can also find schools in al ain. Just have him google:

-schools in alain
-schools in abu dhabi--dont have him expect an answer from these schools, i dont know whats wrong with them. but he ll get response from al ain and sharjaih..
-schools in dubai/sharjaih


Sharjaih seems to be a different city but its not that far... less than 45 min. from dubai

take care
