If anyone remembers my period of activity when I became interested in ESL, since then, I have completed almost year of English teaching and almost a year of my TESOL MA.

My question relates more to direct-hires than contractors, as I would expect they would be more concerned with the quality of the qualifications.


I can't add to what's already been said about the thesis/non-thesis issue so I won't go into that. However, in a related issue:

Did you decide to do an online MA? You've already been advised that KSA doesn't accept these for hiring purposes. My concern is that you are still focusing on a Saudi job given that you are asking these questions on the Saudi board and that you're talking "Saudi talk" = "direct hire, contractors" (see above quote).

The following news item is what prompted me to write on this board today...you may find it of interest:

I really don't see what's attracting you to Saudi. It's not what it used to be in a lot of ways and the high salaries are a thing of the past. They pay ok, but you're not going to get rich in a couple of years....not anymore. Anyway, good luck.
