I have moved here from Canada to teach at a private school.
I am currently residing in Al Ain, and have been here in the UAE for about 4 days now..

I am looking to meet other teachers, and or young people in Al Ain and figured this would be a good site to get started

Hope everyone had a good weekend :)

Hey SRG9,

How are you?

I am Tanzeelah and I am from Toronto Canada.  I, as well, am a teacher.  How is Al Ain treating you thus far?  I also got a teaching job in Al Ain and will be moving sometime this week.  I am looking to meet some new friends :)

Hope to hear from you soon .. Tanzeelah :)

Hi ladies (at least, it seems to be mostly ladies!),

I should be arriving in a week or so and will be here to teach, too!  It has been so horribly stressful to get my move put together, mostly because it takes forever to hear anything from my school and get some kind of official plan.  Still waiting to hear when my flight will be, actually.  :(

But when I get there I'd love to meet a few other ladies who are looking for new friends!  Is anyone interested in meeting for a coffee somewhere? 

Looking forward to hearing from you!!

Hi,

I am also looking for someone to join me in the evenings (after office hours) and weekends (depending upon their schedule) to hangout and spare time together. A plan can be put together to hangout and this can be settled after first meeting and various activities can be scheduled.

I have a separate furnish house in Al Ain for my stay and staying alone.

Umer

Hi

I have been offered a teaching position in Al Ain and would be grateful for any information/advise you could give me.

Thanks,

Christina

Hi Christina,

Congrats for being offered a position. Al Ain is a beautiful,calm and nice city for work and living. Its quiet in comparison to Dubai and other Emirates in terms of traffic, pollution etc. Dubai is around 1:15 minutes drive from Al Ain so never difficult to catch when you want to go to your favorite restaurant Or beech etc. In terms of expenses , Al Ain is cheaper than other Emirates etc.

Please feel free to get any specific information and I would love to help you

Regards,
Umer

Hi Umer

Thank you for your response. It is all a bit of a whirlwind to be honest. Do you know anything about the Al Jaheli Institute of Science & Technology?

umer2012

This institute is part Or authorized by
Abu Dhabi Centre for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (ACTVET) and I saw it in popular local newspaper for some vocational courses.
http://www.khaleejtimes.com/DisplayArti … ion=theuae

This shows its a good institute and local Govt. always offer and rely on good institutes for their local talent.

I am not sure about the offer you got from here to guide you more.

you can discuss with me on skype umer.uks or through email in details u_farooq20 at hotmail dot com and I can help you further in this matter.

Regards,
Umer
