My FIRST week as a TEACHER in the UAE
#Teacher #TeachingInTheUAE #Dubai #UAE
I have completed my first full week in the UAE as a teacher. While teaching doesn't begin until the end of August, there are many processes to complete for a smooth transition. In this video I talk about the key things I've done this week, I hope it helps.

New teachers in the UAE go and find the group: Teachers in the Middle East. It's a useful page for anyone who has moved over to teach!

What I was looking for mate. The complete process and steps for teaching in UAE! 👍😊
Very useful insight. I'll be moving to Al Ain in the next month and am enjoying what you've been sharing.
This video was so informative! Thank you x
Thanks for the useful insight. I'll be moving to Abu Dhabi from South Africa in the next month and your travel updates will certainly help me as well. All the best with the rest of your transition mate.

If you’re worried that language is a barrier.. then there are many teachers here that are not native English speakers.

Hi, Alex. How are you doing? Thank you so much for your useful videos. I've found your videos recently and got really useful information for myself. I'm an English teacher. I'm also planning to go to UAE to work. Can I find a job at one of the schools there while I'm still home? Or should I just go to Dubai or Abu Dhabi first, then find a job?. Could you please help find a job in UAE schools

Hello! I recommend searching while at home rather than coming out. Coming out won’t help you any more.

Depends on the school.. private schools will expect you to be a qualified teacher but local schools will employ non qualified teachers with experience. Really depends on the role and type of school you’re looking for

Coming to Dubai later this month. So which bank did you choose? Guess you get a debit card and then have to wait for a credit card later down the line? Was in Qatar and having a debit card was actually a pain, they prefer a cc!!
