Teaching in Dubai

About Dubai

Dubai is a fast-growing city that has dramatically transformed over the past four decades. The glamorous city life, picturesque beaches and outstanding architecture and plenty of teaching opportunities are just some of the reasons people flock to the city to begin their new adventure.

With a mixture of old, new and record-breaking features, Dubai certainly offers something for everyone. The gold souks and markets in Dubai Creek show a different side to Dubai, offering a touch of culture to what is considered to be a largely cosmopolitan city. As well as this, you will never be far away from the largest shopping mall and the tallest building in the world! There are also surprises around every corner with a huge indoor ski slope, manmade islands and the world’s first 7 star hotel all on your doorstep.

As you can imagine, the lifestyle Dubai offers comes at a price. The cost of living is fairly high, however, you will find that many employers recognise this and will either provide accommodation or an allowance towards living costs. You can also expect a generous teachers salary package including; flights home, visa and medical cover as standard.

The sunshine takes precedence for the majority of the year, the summers are very hot and humid, however, the indoor temperatures would have you believe otherwise as the city is very well prepared with everywhere providing air-conditioning including the bus stops! For a large part of the year, outdoor activities such as BBQs and beach days are an enjoyable everyday occurrence as Dubai sees consistently perfect temperatures of around 24-34°C.
