Hello, what is you son’s mother tongue?

Hello, weigh pros and cons about relocating here. I see some people are suggesting you look for teaching jobs. Beware! Great International schools offering an attractive package are difficult to get into because they will hire certified teachers only, parents pay a lot for their child to get top education so these schools will be picky with their teachers. Other so called International schools may hire you just because you hold a foreign passport and will not care if you are certified or not, have experience or not, and salaries are usually low. Cost of living has been rising a lot lately, and rents are now rocketing, especially in expat-ish areas. Also, Egyptian students can be quite a challenge if you have little or no teaching experience, parents are also difficult to deal with and most schools will stand for them not for you.

If you land a job in a good school and a good package, you can have a really nice life here and Egypt is a beautiful country!

Very good and accurate summary of the situation in the schools in Egypt.
