Hi all, new to the Kuwait forum and am in the midst of researching the country and teaching positions there. We are a couple, both certified teachers from Canada who have worked in Korea for one year and Thailand for two. We have 5 years teaching experience and are looking to move somewhere where we can save a bit of money and also further our development. We had a contract offer at UAS but I've searched and haven't found any information on this school. They are offering around 27 000 USD/year. How is this compared to other schools in Kuwait? Also, has anyone any information about this school? Anything to watch out for? For our qualifications, should we be looking elsewhere?

Thanks very much for your help. It is very appreciated.

p.s. the school also offers free accommodations and utilities, flights every year, moving allowance, contract completion bonus, etc...the usual perks from an international school.

[shawnskalinski]

yes, that's the school. Who is their recruiter? Why do you say not to trust him? How do you know about the apartments?
