| Maybe they are afraid they will not get enough candidates? Do you think the recent "blow-up" in the UAE will make it more difficult to hire westerners? |

I'm wondering what "blow-up" Dubai missed out on?!  |

I haven't noticed that the release of American torture videos kept people from trying to get in the US for jobs.

I glad too hear about the salary range change. I hoping with my resume I'll be near the top end.
10 years teaching secondary 6 science/4 ELL
BS Ed. bio minor
MEd and MATESOL
summers intensive English course at a university
My phone interviewer said the ADEC was going to start having Math and Science taught in English, too. Anybody have any insight on that?
Good luck to you too, april81 |

| That's true. Science, Maths and possibly IT are being taught in English. The ADEC is also hoping that English will be taught in English now that they're going to put native speaking teachers into the classroom as well. No more teaching English in Arabic. |
