I've been googling this question to death but all I can find is conflicting information most of which is several years old. I would VERY much appreciate any up-to-date info on this.
My husband will start working in Jeddah this fall. He is an international teacher.
I have a B.A. degree in linguistics (Russian), 9 years work experience in a translators association and an online TESOL certificate (200 hours). I do NOT, however hold an official teaching degree or any non-online TESOL degree. Also, English is my native language but I don't have a passport from an English speaking country (I'm from the EU).
I will be joining my husband in Jeddah. As soon as he gets his iqama we will apply for a dependent visa.
My husband will be my sponsor.
Now I want to know if I can find employment as an English teacher in Jeddah?
I found articles from Saudi Gazette and Arab News, there they say yes, then no, then yes again, then no again. All these articles are from around 2014 or 2015. Calling the embassy also wasn't helpful.
I don't know whom to ask or where to look any more. Please help.
Thank you!
