For someone with 8-10 years of experience,
is $36,000 per year
plus housing
plus plane tickets
plus medical

a fair package ?

Will I be able to save part of my salary and still belong to a nice gym?
Will I be able to go to the cinema and to a restaurant each week ?

Are taxis easy to find in Doha ?

Doha is an expensive place to live. You don't mention the job (primary secondary or tertiary) or your education or where or what your experience encompasses - so I can't comment if it's a good salary - if you have minimal for education and your experience is mainly speaking/listening - it might be OK. If you have related EFL/ESL Master's and 3+ post grad years experience in writing at the tertiary level preferably in the Middle East, it's an insult.

What's your idea of a good gym? What type of restaurants do you like to frequent? As a pseudo gauge - a pint of beer here at most venues goes for between just under $10 - $15USD. Yes there are a few places that are cheaper, this is for the majority of venues.

This is for a school at the primary level.
I have a BA and teaching degree.
Is it still an insult ?

Seems pretty standard for this place. Schools here don't pay top rates although the cost of living here is very high.
