Hi all

I have got a teaching job in Dubai at a Gems School, quite exciting!! It would be great to know if anyone else is moving to Dubai this summer to Teach?
I have a seen a few older post's but nothing that recent.

Thanks

LM

Hi, I am in the interview process with a GEMS school! I'm very hopeful that it will work out. If it does i'd love to keep in touch! I have visited some GEMS school when I was there last month, including GEMS World Academy...it looks very nice!

Hiya

I'm moving out to teach in Aug at SRS. Scared and excited all at the same time!!

I'm in contact with a couple of people going out and we are hoping to meet up in the UK before we go so that we know some people when we get out! PM if you like and when we make out arrangements your welcome to join us.

Hi, I am going out alone too. So would be great to keep in touch. Do you have accommodation with your package?

Hi :-) When I started applying in December, it seemed so far away, but now everything is coming around so fast. Just in the process of sorting all of my visa paperwork out, stress!

Yeah I do get accomodation, a furnished apartment but am not sure where yet. I pay the bills though! Do you?

Interesting! Seems like a later start and finish? Has this definitely been approved as I was looking at me new schools calendar for 2012/13! We need to start a group for those moving this summer! Instant friends!
