Teachers.....your input pse..

Im asking on behalf of an old mate who has contacted me. He has an interview for a school called Chuoeifat.

Never heard of it myself...anyone..

He was also asking what the rough salary will be..He is a maths teacher.

cheers for any abuse, advice, piss taking or general ignoring in advance:D

My friend who is a maths teacher at the Australian School in Sharjah is on a package of around 14k (she gets 10,500AED cash, with the other 3,500 going on accommodation).

No idea if it's more in Dubai. And Choeuifat is between 331rd Road (Jumeirah Beach road end of Hessa Street) and Dubai Internet City (the TECOM end).

Hi,
Although I have never worked in a Chuoeifat school, they are known in the middle east as being awful places to work. The teacher is allowed no independent thinking, every Chuoeifat school in the gulf is on the same page on the same day. Lots of testing. The salary, from what I understand will be about 10000AED. Tell him to do a search on the TES teaching overseas forum, searching for chewwyfat, as schools are not allowed to be named on that forum. I do know people that have worked at the one in Dubai, so could come back tomorrow with more information.

If he is 22 and straight out of uni, then he could be okay, it is also likely to be shared accommodation.

oh dear you havent heard of Chouefiat:p teachers do not need to be qualified in subject as long as you have a degree, but it also depends on where you come from as to how much salary you will get. the teachers are not allowed to talk to the parents. they are taught by rote and they test them every week to pass the exams even from the youngest age, they do not do "whole child" there isnt much sport or anything like that. the fees are much less than a brit curriculum so dont think salaries will be on par with them.

I know. The closest I have seen is a building near Al Raha gardens called Choufanny. It makes me giggle every friday when I run past it.

Thanks for the info though, my favouritest bestest poster.

a friend of mine who has a degree in special needs or something like that but is british was going to be paid 3 times the salary of someone who came from the phillipines but didnt have a degree, but she was an artist.

Re: Teachers.....your input pse..
 

I am always looking out for good maths teachers, I am an HOD at a good school in Dubai. We don't have any vacancies for this year, but could have some next year. CV's are always welcome.

Re: Teachers.....your input pse..
 

Wtf??

Re: Teachers.....your input pse..
 

Interesting, but I am referring to the building called choufani on the main road that runs parallel to ARG.

Anyway, its not even funny. Well not now that I've had to explain it again..

Re: Teachers.....your input pse..
 

yeh you are talking about raha beach i was locating the school building for you in kca. :thumbsup:

Re: Teachers.....your input pse..
 

... and there we go. You were doing so well too.

Re: Teachers.....your input pse..
 

Chuoeifat is a lebbo school. Expect kids with attitude that do no work and parents that are very hard work.

Still, I bet the sixth form girls look good so it may work out for him.
