Questions and more questions ... coming as teacher

Post new topic

I'm coming to teach English...

My very first time in Middle East, in Saudi, in Jeddah; very nervous here and therefore these queries:

What else should I ask my sponsor before coming, aside from the obvious as what to expect upon arrival at the airport?

I already posted my concern about exit pass and iqama; also the free accommodation.

Please share your ideas on what else I may ask them...thanks a lot.

If you are coming as a US Citizen that's a plus already.


But is she a US citizen? Profile just says living in US.

Nymphx

Yes, I am.  You seem to have a problem.  Why don't you post your question to me, directly?

I'm available to answer ...

Because it was Blackcat who said it, NOT you. 

Now before you get your knickers in a twist, i am trying to clarify the situation so people can correctly answer the questions you've asked.  If you are a Filipina whose been living in the US but who has a Philippines passport, your experience would be considerably different than that of a US citizen.  It's not fair but that's the way it is in KSA.
