Hi elatabanib > could you please avoid using caps lock on the forum. If you have other questions you could start a new topic on the forum. Thank you.

I am interested in knowing if you have a BA in English.  I was offered a contract and signed one and then was told that I require a BA in English to be considered.  I have a Bachelor of Environmental Studies, a Bachelor of Education - Primary, Junior, Intermediate Qualifications, and a Master of Science in Education. I had 23 years experience in education as a teacher, program consultant, Vice-Principal and Principal.  I am presently completing my TEFL qualification from the University of Toronto.

Hello Gerry
Are you still talking about Al Khaleej Traning and Education?
I also was offered employment but you have more qualifications. Did they change their offer? Please get back to me as I still am trying to find out any information on the company and the locations. Also I would like information on the work hours, housing, internet access, visas, family visas, etc. If you have found out anything please let me know. Thanks:):)

I was told by the placement company that I did not have a Bachelor of Arts in English and my application was rescended.  Do you have a Bachelor of Arts in English?

elatabanib

No Gerry I do not. I probably will be rescended also. Who did you talk to?
