American ESL teacher in China looking to meet / greet /teach in Egypt

What kind of school are you looking for? Are you a certified teacher?

I don't have a teaching cert. but I'm degreed and have a TESL cert (Chinese).

I thought about teaching at an international school but working for a Chinese school has really given me the cultural experience i was looking for.

I've noted that expat communities/intl. schools are kind of insular. Like...why go to China to teach if your coworkers, your students and neighbors aren't Chinese...yah know?

If you're aware of a reputable Egyptian school, that'd be great.

I completely agree! I, too, preferred to teach Egyptian children than expat children.

Check out the International School of Choueifat

You don't need a teaching cert...they do a bit of their own training as they have their own "system" and "curriculum" they have developed. The teaching can be kind of boring because you have to follow their system to the letter...but it's one of the more recognized schools that you can work at without certification.

Check out these links, too, good info:
