Teaching ESL in Saudi Arabia: Questions

I found a position offered on Dave's ESL for Princess Nora University as an ESL teacher. I want to know more about what it is like teaching in Saudi. I have three years of experience teaching ESL in Korea and volunteer experience teaching English in Taiwan. My students in Korea don't listen to me during the class and it is very hard to teach them. I am interested in teaching students that really want to study and get the most out of the class.

I want to know more about the job positions at Saudi universities. Are the classes very difficult to teach? Do foreigners co teach? How are the university students, do they enjoy learning English?

I would like to know a bit more about teaching in Saudi before I apply. Thanks!
