All:
(1) What possible employment opporunities could an "expat" spouse with two Masters degree: MS (Education - Counseling) , MS (Education - Instructional Leadership) and BA (English), and High School and Community Teaching and Social Work experiences expect in the Abu Dhabi?

(2) Possible salary expectations?

ifychris.

Have that spouse apply BEFORE you get to AD/dubai. Have them become an out of country hire so they get a MUCH better salary, MUCH better benefits BEFORE you get into the country.

Spouse doesn't want to be an "in country" hire, as they usually get a lower salary.

With those MS degrees, the spouse could easily teach in the Bachelors of Ed program for HCT.

Can't say what salary they would offer though.

There would be many more opportunities for her than in little Bahrain.

adorabilly is correct, but you run into the problem of both of you getting hired to teach in the same city.
