I have done a search, but there isn't much.

And the school's website is indeed in Arabic, which I am not yet fluent in (actually I have not yet gotten beyond "Salaam aleikum!"), only.

So if anyone has any further info on the school, work conditions, the town, etc., it wold be greatly appreciated.

I passed through Al Baha once on the road from Abha to Jeddah. I thought it looked quite interesting (I like southwestern Saudi Arabia) and I was awestruck by the mountain road. I would, however, never be able to live there as it is too small.

Kinda indicates on how well you'd be considered there as an English teacher...that is, of course, if that's what you are...

Baha is in the saudi Rockies so, if it's mountain living that you're looking for, it might be for you. The isolation would kill my wife.

Can't remember what Grendel wrote, but I was referring that if a university wants to hire prospective English teachers, then certainly, they should translate just a bit (such as job opportunities) of it. If not, it strikes me that the hiring of English teachers would have been an afterthought on the university's part and something that I wouldn't want to be involved in...
