 Posted: Wed Oct 08, 2014 3:12 pm Post subject: Teaching Saudis in Texas |
 |
|
After a very thorough search I found a company that teaches Saudis in TX.
They are SSI- ANC- please Google it. However, I found out that they only give one week vacation per year and you need to teach 6 hours a day.
I tried to negotiate a longer vacation but they refused. However, many people gladly accepted a job with them.
The pay is 52-58K a year. |

| That position is typical of DLIELC jobs (http://www.dlielc.edu/). |

I was referring to their usage of DLI curriculum. From SSI-ANC's job posting:Will instill improved English language skills to students at a pace that meets or exceeds the Defense Language Institute English Language Center (DLIELC) standards per the Defense Language Institute Programming Time Calculator.
ELT will provide students with a total immersion (face-to-face instruction in the classroom and associated facilities) in the American English language for six (6) hours a day, 5 days per week, using DLIELC’s American Language Course (ALC) General ELT course materials. |

Take a pass. Sounds like a sweatshop and I'll guarantee you one thing...the Saudi noncom-poops rule the roost there... |

"DLIELC jobs" and "DLI curriculum" do not equate to me.
But what do I know? I'm just a native speaker of the language...
Those Sheppard jobs are for mercenaries...no job protection and, I know of a self-promoting redhead just moved there who'll throw you under a bus. |
