TRAVEL & TEACH ENGLISH IN UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

United Arab Emirates - Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution
Exercise increased caution in the United Arab Emirates due to the threat of missile or drone attacks and terrorism.

Teaching English in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) offers a unique and rewarding experience for TESOL teachers. Known for its modern cities, high-quality infrastructure, and commitment to education, the UAE places a strong emphasis on English proficiency in schools, universities, and professional sectors. Teachers in the UAE benefit from competitive tax-free salaries, comprehensive benefits like housing allowances, health insurance, and annual airfare, making it financially attractive. Cultural respect is essential, and teachers are encouraged to incorporate interactive and culturally sensitive methods in the classroom. With iconic landmarks, diverse communities, and a blend of tradition and innovation, teaching in the UAE provides personal and professional growth in one of the Middle East's most progressive countries. The United Arab Emirates (UAE), situated on the Arabian Peninsula, is primarily characterized by a vast, arid desert landscape. Rolling sand dunes dominate the interior, occasionally punctuated by oases, while the coastline features sabkha (salt flats) and mangrove forests. The Hajar Mountains, shared with Oman, rise dramatically in the east, offering a stark contrast to the flat desert plains. While the majority of the country experiences a hot desert climate, the mountains provide a cooler respite and occasional rainfall. The UAE's coastline along the Persian Gulf features natural and man-made harbors, with Dubai boasting the largest natural harbor. Despite the predominantly arid environment, the UAE's diverse ecosystems include desert, coastal, and mountainous habitats, supporting a surprising variety of wildlife.
