Hello. So I have been offered a teaching job for 8500 QR a month, and the usual benefits including accommodation, flights, medical.. Anyway what i wanted to know is if thats enough to live on and save some money too? (FYI I'm single and travelling on my own).
Oh, sure, always. But they don't move much for bottom wages. You should ask for your current salary in the UK plus 25% plus housing, transportation, etc.
Schools that offer low salaries generally have other unpleasant surprises in store for prospective teachers. Try to find a current or former teacher at that school to get a review. Perhaps daveseslcafe.com.
As a single you need at least 3000 qatari riyals to survived here considering you have a free accomodation. But how about your transportation? It's not cheap here. Granted that you have a free transport. Is it okay for you to save 5000+ riyals?
it is slightly more than i currently earn. I feel like there should be more of a financial incentive to move to Qatar though. I was just wondering if it was a good teaching salary? I'm thinking that it isn't though..
Qatar's winter months are brimming with unmissable experiences, from the AFC Asian Cup 2023 to the World Aquatics Championships Doha 2024 and a variety of outdoor adventures and cultural delights.

is it worth trying to negotiate?

compare it with your current salary (also net).
I think that is the on-going rate for a teacher like you here. Anyway, let's wait for the other advise.

you need to convert to pounds and determine if that is more than what you make now..
if you really don't have any expenses and are just looking for the experience, than maybe its ok..
just depends on your personal needs..
we can't answer that question..only offer some advice on limited information..
Hi Mandi,
What would you expect a certified teacher with one year experience to get?
Looks like QL Mods & Admin are on vacation.
If you are a certified teacher, then no.
