Teaching in the UAE offers a unique opportunity to work in modern, well-resourced classrooms in one of the safest countries in the world. Expats make up more than 90% of the population and cities like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Ras al-Khaimah and Sharjah rank among some of the best places to teach. English teachers are in high demand across private schools, international schools, and language centres, with many positions offering competitive salaries, housing allowances, and flight re-imbursements.

Workweeks are generally well-structured, giving teachers a good work-life balance. That means plenty of time to explore and enjoy world-class dining and shopping against a backdrop of stunning desert landscapes and rich cultural heritage.

The TEFL Academy’s Level 5 TEFL certification, with 168 hours of comprehensive training, fully equips you for success in Emirati classrooms, applying your skills in lesson planning, teaching methodologies, and specialist areas.
