Primary teachers salary

Hi everyone,

Just a quick question for you all. I'm researching as to the average salary for a primary school teacher in Doha. I understand that many of the international schools have a scale that relates to teaching experience but I just wanted to see what people have to say.

I have been teaching for almost 3 years now and an academy recently offered me 11,000 QAR/month (with housing, flights,medical etc). Would this be average or should I 'barter' as it were?

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks!

This is about average for 3 years experience you may get another 500 or 1000 if you push it but with 10 years experience the normal salary only goes to about 17,000 or 18,000 so this is about right for your experience. Hope this helps

It is a decent salary, but it depends on your experience. I know teachers than earn less and very few that earn more than than (you might find posts that state otherwise ,i.e. salaries above QR 13000!!I seriously doubt about it).
