Maybe, if you hustle. The problem will be a work visa and more likely you will be doing regular visa runs.
If you have searched the other threads, some employers have been discussed. I am only familiar with the American Language Center. You may be able to pick up some part-time.

| In Syria you will be legal or you will not stay. No tolerance for illegal work - especially for US or UK citizens ! |

Welll... Scot has perhaps overstated it a bit. A friend of mine taught there for about a year, but got tired of the visa runs. That said, they may make it more difficult now for Americans. (and British)
