high salary & perfect package... too good to be true?
I saw an ad offering over 4k USD monthly, plus airfare, housing, health insurance, and paid vacations for teaching positions. Is this the norm over there? Because if it is, it's a well kept secret; South Korea isn't even offering packages like that and they're getting all the coverage. Does anyone k...

I'm from the States and I'm currently in them. I just saw this ad today. Not as good in comparison to...? Western Europe? I know the classroom won't ever be as good for language learning as total immersion, but it's better than nothing at all. Do they have phonics exercises? Pronunciation tests?

:shock: Can anyone already there tell me how, with free housing, anyone could not make enough on over 4 grand a month? Do food and transportation cost an arm and a leg or are there hidden expenses I've read nothing about? What are the hidden costs? Because at that pay even if you bought a new laptop...

I have searched the forums and saw a similar question. The person who responded said it did look high, others are saying it's normal, maybe not enough. There was a transportation and food allowance. I've worked in Seoul and I don't know if UAE is just hell bent on paying teachers what they're worth ...

The ad was posted by the Ministry of Labor. The materials emailed to me are not from a recruiter. Is that apt to lead to a real school?
I just want to start teaching again in March and if they have a better job in a country with higher pay and more expats, I'll take it in a second.

Neeeeevermind. It is a waste of time, found out on another site. For anyone else doing a future search, they are neat enough to use a different website: The real MOL: http://www.mol.gov.ae/index.php The fake one: http://WWW.UAEMINISTRYOFLABOUR.TK It's a recruiting company looking for cash and passpo...

That sucks, I really hope they get into huge trouble with an actual government someday. Even if the pay were the same, I'd rather try out working in the middle east over Korea. Probably not this year. They responded to my email on a Friday, too... a government agency in a Muslim country open on Frid...
