A Guide to teaching English in Saudi Arabia Mahir Gazdar

When many people think of Saudi Arabia, they think of the religion and politics. There are however many people who go to Saudi Arabia every year from all over the world, including many people who go there to teach, including teaching English. There are many questions and concerns that such people might have about the country. It is for this reason that this guide has been made. Mr Mahir Gazdar taught English in the UK and Saudi Arabia. Through the series "A Guide to Teaching English in Saudi Arabia", he gives essential information about living and working as an English Teacher there and gives personal accounts of his experiences. In the fifth in this series, he focuses on the "Qassim" region where he taught, covering details of cities such as Buraidah, Unaizah and Bukairiya. It is hoped that this guide will be of interest to anyone who is considering moving to Saudi Arabia and teaching there or for anyone who has a general curiosity about the country.
