If you are asking what salary you would get based on these qualifications, probably between 10,000 to 13,000 SR per month. If you are working for a university, your housing and bills would be paid for and you would get around two months+ paid holiday per year.
PM me if you need more information
Good luck! |

That really should be: "(If you are able to get hired directly at) a university..." Your unrelated BA and average teaching experience won't put you at the top of the list for direct-hire opportunities; however, contracting companies would be interested in you as would the British Council. |

Thanks for the correction, Sicklyman. Strike that one off the list. An American friend of mine works for them, but she likely has dual citizen through her British husband. |

Allow mw to digress. Marriage to a UK citizen is NOT a path to citizenship ! |

The answer is quite simple. You do not need to be British to work for the British Council. A sound understanding of British culture and the education system is desirable. |

While the BC does prefer to hire Brits, I know Americans who have worked for them... and a British spouse would probably be considered a plus to them.

The conditions include residence in the UK for three years. There are others. Marriage in itself is not sufficient. In the good old days it was !
One of the hurdles frequently faced by British EFLers with non-EU wives is the current requirement that the spouse have earnings of £18,600 before (s)he can bring said spouse to UK. |
