Dear all,
I got a job offer from Berlitz Oman as a part timer:
OR 350 basic salary + OR 300 worth accommodation including utilities
5 hours teaching / admin work for 5 days a week
After 3 months probation, I'll be hired as a full timer :
OR 600 basic salary + OR 300 accommodation including utilities and
a work visa, med insurance and air fare
8 hours teaching / admin for 6 days a week
Has anyone worked for Berlitz in Oman?
I'm not sure if this is good enough as I've heard that they pay well in Gulf countries. What is the average teaching salary and cost of living in Oman?
Pls advise as I have not worked in ME before.
p/s: I have a Bachelor's Degree in Linguistics (English), a CELTA qualification and ~ 3yrs of teaching experience.
Thanks
Jasmine |

imho, only the truly untrained like berlitz
the 'berlitz method' is nothing more than the very archaic audio-lingual method basically in 40 minute shots
this teaching method went out of style in the developed world in the 1960's
berlitz will have a speaker in your room to monitor that you follow the book and method for the whole time
it's a packaging gimmic - students trained with this method learn very targeted routines as per the book |
