Hi eire2uae, I recently moved over here and had to pack my life into one suitcase, make sure you bring lots of light clothing which covers you up- it's hot hot getting hotter here! I don't know if you're male or female but you may also want to bring a couple of cover ups as it can be cold in some air conditioned places. Everywhere seems to have gyms and pools so you may also want to bring swim/ workout gear and beach wear too. If you plan on going to bars, clubs people do get quite dressed up so a couple of smarter outfits too. Try to leave heavy things such as toiletries and books behind, you can buy everything here. In terms of teaching resources I'm not 100% sure but I do know there are lots of expat teachers here so it may be that you can hook up with others and borrow/ share resources. Good luck, do let me know if I can be of any further help.
