Here are a few tips to get a teaching job easily in Dubai:
English teachers should have accreditation like TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). Moreover, you can also teach English in Dubai if you have a University degree in English. It gets you more chances of landing a job.
In Dubai, there is an abundance of schools, colleges and universities. There’s a high chance that they’re looking for English teachers. If you think you have the qualifications, try and submit as many applications as possible and you’ll definitely find one.
Not only schools and universities need the expertise of English teachers, also professional training centres which are at every corner of Dubai require one. Being one of UAE’s business central hubs, professionals are always looking to increase their knowledge. Professional training centres are a great place to try and get a teaching job.
Sometimes being a teacher isn’t enough to land you a job. You can also try and volunteer to teach for free in Dubai. Use this as an opportunity not only to add plus points in your CV but to give back to the community.
Back up your skills with your experience. Being a teacher is a passion that is shared to others and meant to influence other people. You can start a blog and talk about topics under your niche. Use this avenue as means to showcase you as an expert in your field.
Schools in the UAE are very keen on accessing new faculty through personal recommendation. If you have a friend or colleague successfully making a career of teaching in Dubai, the school is likely to be very interested in anyone that teacher vouches for.
