If you are doing a certificate in TEFL (120 hours) now, and do not have a teaching qualification for K-12 and/or a masters in TESOL/applied linguistics/education/etc. then the UAE is really not the place for you.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/695199174349027421/1558745243675029898/comments/default/778333649460597896'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/695199174349027421/1558745243675029898/comments/default/778333649460597896'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mandkuae.blogspot.com/2008/04/one-year-down.html?showComment=1210300320000#c778333649460597896' title=''/><author><name>Cairogal</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06455506176926199209</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://mandkuae.blogspot.com/2008/04/one-year-down.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695199174349027421.post-1558745243675029898' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/695199174349027421/posts/default/1558745243675029898' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695199174349027421.post-2433956368884712022</id><published>2008-05-05T05:29:00.000+04:00</published><updated>2008-05-05T05:29:00.000+04:00</updated><title type='text'>Hello,My name is Ilham from Canada.
