I say go for it. My only warning is make sure that it is easy for you to exit if you decide you dont like it. the arab world is much different than here. if you arent arab you are fighting a losing battle from the jump in any conflict. I may be wrong, but I dont believe you can just leave the country if you find your self in some kind of legal issue. If I remember right, you can get sued for just about anything over there, even just talking the wrong way to someone.

If you are teaching, you really need a lawyer to go over your contract on what your expectations are.

If you are given certain metrics - like 85% of a class has to pass - and you don't meet them, the placement company can force you to work til you meet it or they can retroactively take money back from you.

You need to know exactly how you are going to get paid, the terms of payment, any penalties and any visa/local employment laws.

You need an airtight contract.
