THE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF CHOUEIFAT???


irish vanessa Does anyone know anything about this school in Dubai??? I am applying for a job there...where abouts in Dubai is it located? Is it a reputable school?? The contract seems fairly strict, as do their rules... ...Im worried that its going to be like im back in school again myself, being dictated to by the superiours! Im willing to dedicate myself to a job, but not if i'm going to be treated like a kid again... Just wondering what y'all know...u seem like a knowledgeble bunch! Thanks, Vanessa
arniegang The only person on here i know of with such knowledge is Liban. Try using the search, because this was discussed recently Nucleus
Close to Jumeirah, Al Barsha, Emirates Living, and Marina.

Yep.

I graduated from AUD and I felt the same. Perhaps it is Lebanese management style. irish vanessa Thanks Nucleus! Ive got an interview this month in ireland and i suppose i should take the job if i get it since they provide flights, accomodation and salary of 72,000 dirham...what do you think?? Is that a good offer??? Its only a year long contract, so i can search for jobs in the media/communications/PR area when im over there...(thats what my degree is in and what i am really interested in doing)... But, as i said before id do pretty much anything to move over there...even if i am working for crazy strict lebanese dictators! thanks again, Vanessa Liban 72K AED!!!! WHAT!!!!!! Damn right thats a good salary!!! Take it!!!!!! Shoot... Thats the salary of some corportate directors I know! XRW-147 Liban, I think thats PA not PM. irish vanessa Thats PA!!!! Uh oh.....that means it must be really bad!!! I get accomodation and flights though...am i being swindeled???? OOOPS, Innocent irish vanessa! XRW-147 No you're not being swindled. Just check what type of accomodation you'll be getting and how far it is away from where the school is - cause that will determine your transport exps. What about healthcare etc Vanessa? irish vanessa Its shared accomodation with own room, possibly on the school campus...no mention of healthcare...flight over is on the 15th august (if i get it)...will probably die coming from the cold summers here...but will be worth it once october comes-im really not made for irish weather....jealous of all you guys in dubai-its 0 degrees here today! XRW-147 If its on the school campus you'll save going to and from work ;) Should include amenities etc as well then I guess. Wonder if they'll set a curfew for you though... On healthcare its worth checking out, just in case, u know what I mean. Yeah, looking out the window now... a nice (warm) scenery of sun, sand and cranes...

irish vanessa Im as green as your avatar with envy!! Struggling to type my fingers are so blue... If there's a curfew im breaking it-no chance im being told what time to go to bed at, at the ripe age of 22! Im a bit of an insomniac so early nights are a waste of time for me...is the sea beautiful??? Im already dreaming about my after-work evening swims... Better get the job now... kanelli Here is one website where you can find info about teaching in schools in the UAE. It focuses on ESL teaching mostly, but the forum contains many topics on many different schools. Use the seach function to look up the school name - perhaps there are some threads on it. I hope it helps! :) Liban
DOH! My bad!!! :oops:
Well look, all is not lost. Like XRW said, check your complete package. If everything is provided to you and you have 6K/mo as spending money then its rather good IMHO.
There is more than what meets the eye :) irish vanessa Thanks kanelli... That site had some great advice-basically DONT go and teach in that school! Its a bootcamp for teachers! Ok...so plan B-work for Emirates airlines...anyone got any advice/stories/experiences with the company???? Im sorry for all the annoying questions...hopefully some day ill be offering all the newbies advice.. some beautiful UAE day... Danke, Vanessa XRW-147
The ocean is nice to look at but if I don't go play bball I normally have a swim on my rooftop and watch the sun set over the horizon from there... which reminds me, time to go home for a swim! irish vanessa PS: Liban...u sure know a lot for a guy ur age...imagine how wise you'll be when u hit 5???? (Cant read your posts without imagining a big fat baby with the deepest wisest voice in the world offering me advice!! It cracks me up!) irish vanessa Rub it in even more XRW!! Have a nice swim (bastard)!! Glad to hear one can play bball over ther aswell-used to play for Dublin back in my youth... XRW-147
Most of my friends here are aircrew for Emirates. You don't get paid much when you're doing your training (<2,500/month) but they do give you decent, shared accomodation and pay amenities.
When you graduate and start flying your salary goes up to about 7k per month + your travel allowances.
Not a bad deal if you want to get out and see the world on someone else's dollar. irish vanessa One more question for you XRW...the fountain of knowledge! How long is training for with emirates??? Thanks for all your help...have a nice evening, Vanessa
XRW-147 7 weeks. No problems. U too. Liban
Whatever.
Go do your little job serving coffee on planes... Last time I help you. XRW-147 Liban, u're abit touchy today. She was joking about ur avatar, not your contribution. irish vanessa I have higher aspirations than serving coffee on planes, Liban...i am just struggling to secure a job in my degree area when i am unavailable for interviews in the city... It is just a stepping stone for me and i was only slagging you - chillax man!! Liban
:oops: :oops:
Been under quite a bit of stress lately.
I'll tell you more when I see you! Liban
Sorry Vanessa. I didn't get your joke.
Hope we are cool now! I wish you the best of luck in your career search and may God open up the right path for you.
God Bless! XRW-147
No worries mate, I'll catch ya tomorrow. Now... time for that swim. irish vanessa No worries Liban! thanks for your good wishes...the downfalls of text communication, eh?? Googling a female version of your avator...i love it! PS: have u seen the Briney Spears 'Toxic' video????? Thats gonna be me, living the high life....(if i don't get a job in Dubai Media City, that is!) Liban
Yeah, its so impersonal and cold... :?
That would be so humorous if you to find a female version.... Hi crackhead lovebird babies :lol:
Peace! irish vanessa Found your match Liban! Check her out! GAB Well, hard to say if you are being screwed. I'll pm you a list of schools and on their websites you can look up vacancies and see what is on offer. I know spouses get paid between AED 6 000 to AED14 000 per annum teaching primary school (and nursery assistants get AED3000 up unqualified!! :shock: and teacher assitants get AED4,000, also many not qualified). When I say spouses this means no interest free loan for car, no flights , no health and no accomodation because they are already under their other half's package. Cheers! :) Nucleus Hi,

Looks alright.
- monthly expenses for a single person should be around dhs 2,500 excluding transport.
- If you are traveling in taxis then it may cost you between 1,500 to 3,000 p/m.
- Health insurance can cost you between 200 to 500 p/m which won't include dental insurance.
- Choueifat is very close to media city.
These are my guesses, so correct me people if I'm wrong or missed something.
