Check into the online MAs from Australia. Teach in Asia while you work on it. I think of the Middle East as a place for the older teachers with the experience and creds to get the good university level jobs to do some saving. Most of the teachers tend to be 35-65 years old and married. Also, in the right jobs, it is a good place to raise kids. Asia is certainly more fun for the younger teachers.

| If yuou reallywant a job in KSA now you will probably be confined to one of the chain schools like ELS. The advice about getting an MA online and thinkjing again after 2 opr 3 years more teaching is sound. |

I won't give up on the Middle East totally, but I was already thinking Korea, Taiwan or Japan might be easier for me.
I want to go somewhere where the pay is higher so I can afford the Masters courses. |
That's a smart idea. I did that....worked in Asia for a number of years, saved up, went and did a Masters without having to take out any loans, and then got a good job in the UAE. No regrets!!!  |
