Hi,

I am a teacher with 6 years experience. I am thinking about applying for a teaching position in Saudi Arabia. I would like to know what would constitute a decent job in terms of salary, holidays, timetable and having a reputable employer.

Dear Santiago Matamoros,
Before some else jumps on here and tells you to use the "Search" function, I'd like to suggest that you provide a little more information:

Degrees? BA or MA?
CELTA?
Age (well only if you're over 60 or under 15)
Marital Status/Children - if so, ages
Gender (although from your user name, I suspect it's male)
Your six year's teaching experience - what level was it and was it all abroad?
Favorite color - OK, just kidding

These will help posters to better advise you.

Regards,
John

P.S. Ah, I see you posted on the UAE board:

"I hold the Cambridge CELTA and a PGDE."

That's a start.

I assume your British...
If so, try BAE...lousy job...great pay.
