My wife and I are US citizens and we are looking at teaching English in the UAE in a few years. We both have teaching experience and MA degrees in linguistics and English teaching.
However, in a few years we will both be over 50 years old.
Is age a problem for getting hired to teach English in the UAE?
Teaching English - Is it hard for teachers age 50+ to find work?
