trapezius, veiledsentiments - Thanks for the link but I'm already aware of their cyber presence. the employment page however shows only Male teacher requirement, I was wondering if has the women branch as well?
I'll surely call them once I'm a bit settled in my present place:)

DCC is male students and male teachers. There is no provision for females there.

You could try PMU. British Council in Dammam/Khobar also have classes for females.

Does 'present place' refer to place of employment or place of residence? Because if it's the former, it's not at all easy to simply transfer from one employer to another in KSA, certainly not if you are sponsored by your present employer, as opposed to being on a spouse's iqama.

Cleopatra - I was referring to the residence part. Regarding the change of employment, yes I'm aware and that's one of the reason I was unable to join Interlink but the board here helped me a lot to avoid taking big steps Wink

`So which is the best college to work for in KSA? `

If you have to ask...............

uuummmmm............fish college!

They travel to school ın schools. You can save a lot on transport if you hook a ride with them.

Am I trolling again?

Well, just look at Prince Charles and come to your own conclusions.

"Through multiple inter-marriages, Charles is descended from Sophia of Hanover 22 ways:"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Mountbatten-Windsor#Ancestry

By any definition, that is inbreeding.

Shocked

Edward VIII was the sane one. He wanted to expand the gene pool and look what happened to him.

I suggest that if proximity to your fiance is your goal, then you best marry him or her before you go. Carrying on a relationship if you are with different employers and assigned to live in different areas (as would probably happen) can be very problematic... since it is illegal to even be in a car together, no less in each others' flats... alone together.

Actually shes in Canada now. We are planning on getting married this summer and Im hoping to bring her with me by the time I get a job over there. I also want her to work as well. Thats why I am asking if there are good colleges for women in Dammam.

OK... We have lots of teachers coming from Asia or wherever that don't realize the lifestyle change that the Gulf necessitates. Cool
