Hi all,
I need some advice from expats in Egypt about my employment situation. I came to Cairo from the UK to visit my aunt and cousins here last month, however I liked it here so much that I decided to stay and look for a job as an English teacher. Now I have been offered a job as an English teacher in a language school in New Cairo, but I am not sure whether I should accept this offer or not. The supervisor at the school offered me 5000 LE per month to teach Primary 4 students which includes transportation (school bus) to and from the school. I don't have a teaching qualification so I was delighted to be offered this job with just a degree and 1 year experience tutoring in a centre back in London. She also told me the school doesn't deal with visas or work permits when I asked and that I was the only British/foreigner working in the school. She advised me to get a tourist visa, but I don't think I can stay here with a tourist visa until June 2016. I am currently living with my aunt but I am considering renting a shared apartment closer to the school and being independent. What should I do to be able to stay here until the school year finishes? Is this salary good enough for someone like me? I really don't know who to ask for advice.
