Pros

The Muslim environment. More frequent holidays. Facilities. Great during Ramadan. Most students are lovely.

Cons

Unqualified leadership, owner run (no knowledge about education just money) lack of competence, HR treats you like a slave. Entitled parents who think they can do better. Go ahead then.

Pros

They paint a very respectful and exciting opportunity to get you hooked in to go. Nice accommodations if you can get them privately. Cool country. Fun experience at the time with many Cdn teachers.

Cons

They misrepresent what your role will be. They draw you in by saying you'll be part of a team but they don't want ANY feedback on how they do things, you are their lackey. You do what they want or they sack you. You MUST look good. Any type of dishevelment is cause for being fired. A lot of show without substance in quality education Cheap - you don't even get photocopying rights Real Muslim/Western Teachers divide Not many Canadians working there anymore, a lot of South African Teachers (who stick together) War in the region now
