Hi, Im considering taking up a post here and wondering whether you could brief me on the good, bad and the ugly of this place. It is a big move to Jeddah and I need to be sure its the right place for me in all ways.

@ Fisherman0793!
Welcome to Expat.com!
In general Jeddah is a wonderful City to live in...I am living here since years and had a great time...If you need to ask any specific question, please let me know accordingly..
Hope to see you soon in near future...
Regards!

Hi, Thanks for that. I just need specific details of the school in question. I know little about it and dont want to apply and possibly commit if its not right for me. Have you any experience at Jeddah Knowledge School? Thanks

presidconsult

JKS is a well reputed school in Jeddah. It could be a good choice though...You may also try to American international School and British International Schools. Also Manarat School is nice options.
Thanks!

Now I know your talking some rubbish. Man Rats is the pits of this earth. I had friends who sufferred for years there - trapped with passports confiscated. Thank you but no thank you. Seems you have not worked at Jeddah Knowledge. Im after accurate details not heresay or opinions of a friend of a friend of a friend etc

Hi there,
What a way to reply to presidconsult Fisherman!!!! Seriously Is this how you talk to ppl who have welcomed you and tried to help you here????
I really find this ungrateful!!! Besides you seem to have your own sources so why did you come here and ask in the first place?? how about you just go with what your dear friends tell you because this is obviously what you want to hear..
Im just gonna qoute what Margaret Cousins said once,

“Appreciation can make a day, even change a life. Your willingness to put it into words is all that is necessary.”

I hope that was clear ..

Have a good evening all,
LIna

it is not worth it , to clear that for someone who might have not even a seance of good !!
look sometimes its better to not help , when i had a quick reading on his comment i though it was a miss understanding  . but it was enough rude to swear and not behave .

but dear line you was good enough to clear your option and share , im thankfully for that and i hope i can be a friend of yours .

thanks on behave of us .

Hello. Can you please calm down here? :)

Oops lacking in the manners department, eish and he is a teacher. But hey better to hear the truth I have to agree, if someone has had a positive experience then it's good to share. Maybe those who haven't could as well, constructively, like what to know when signing a contract etc.

It's fine here ..Well , I'm a teacher and when I see something goes wrong in my class, I always take action and fix it and I guess I can't let go of this habbit :)
This blog reflects our community and tells other ppl who we are that's why we all should behave here and if something goes wrong Yes we should point it out..


Now about Jeddah Knowledge , I have got 3 friends who work there and they are pretty happy. From what I hear it's a very organized school and the quality of education that they deliver is amazing.

@Hitch, I would love to be your friend too :)

And that has been said, I wish everybody a great weekend. I myself I have some awesome plans:cool::D


you all take care

Oh the guy was a troll--just someone who comes once or twice and tries to upset people (not to undercut SweetLina--she was absolutely correct but probably just wasting her breath on him!).
