Middle East: English Teacher, Abu Dhabi (UAE Schools) - United Arab Emirates

Private and government schools across Abu Dhabi and the wider UAE recruit qualified English teachers to deliver the curriculum to school-age learners.

Country:
United Arab Emirates

Location:
Abu Dhabi and across the Emirates.

About the role:
Beyond the premium international schools, the UAE has a deep market of private and government schools that need English teachers at every level. You will typically teach English or English-medium subjects to primary or secondary learners, following a set curriculum with materials provided. This role suits qualified teachers who want a well-supported school post with a lower entry bar than the elite international schools while still enjoying the UAE's tax-free earnings and lifestyle.

Typical package:
Employers commonly offer a tax-free monthly salary broadly in the region of AED 7,500-15,000 depending on the school, your qualifications and experience, together with accommodation or a housing allowance, annual flights, medical insurance and paid holidays. Exact terms vary by employer.

Qualifications and requirements:
A bachelor's degree (required for the work visa) and an accredited Global English TESOL certificate. Teaching experience and a home-country teaching licence are preferred for better-paid school posts. Most employers recruit passport holders from the UK, USA, Canada, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand or South Africa; strong near-native speakers are sometimes considered.

This post is advertised for Global English TESOL trainees and graduates. Enquire through Global English to receive further details and apply to the employer direct.

This position is only open to Global English graduates or trainees.
