I have a B.A and a TEFL. Is it possible to get a job teaching in Dubai with no experience and no teaching certificate?

Not a good job, if you don't want legal documents, life sustaining pay in full or on time. Probably.

Here's the catch... Dubai is expensive!! And with no credentials, your pay will be very low.

Is it possible?

Sure.

You won't be working at a "good" school. YOur options will be extremely limited and your salary and housing will be substandard.

But you can get some jobs.

Why do you want to come to Dubai/UAE?

The best option if you want to work and live abroad while teaching english with your credentials are to go to China, Thailand, Korea and even Japan to get some experience. While doing that get a CELTA/DELTA or do an online MA in ESL. And in about 5 to 6 years, then come to Dubai.

Be very careful with online Master degrees. This is often an interview question: "Is your degree on online one?" If you decide to do one, do a lot research on the university.
