Greetings all,

I would like if someone can help me about finding jobs in Yemen? Is Tesol certificate and BA and MA degrees in unrelated fields are good to have to start teaching in Yemen?

any information regarding how to find the English teaching jobs in Yemen and where or how, how much should I expect from salary for a beginner, and what I will need etc, would be helpful.

I am not a native speaker, but fluent. I recently completed a TESOL online certificate.

My other question is, which would it be more practical and useful to have, a certificate in teaching business English or teaching English for young learners?

Please, if someone has a something to add in this topic would be useful.

Thanks

Husam.

UPDATE
I do have private teaching experience, but not in schools or classes.

Start by doing an Internet search on TEFL Yemen to see which jobs you might qualify for as a non-native speaker with an online TEFL cert and zero teaching experience. But frankly, don't hold your breath---even employers in unstable countries prefer experienced teachers with solid TEFL qualifications. Yet, if you see an entry-level opportunity, apply anyway---perhaps there's a language school willing to take a risk with you.

Thank you nomad for your input.

I do have private teaching experience. Maybe that helps?

Private (one-on-one) tutoring and volunteer teaching aren't always considered as professional teaching experience in a classroom environment
