UAE: Requirements to be a teacher in Dubai

UAE: Requirements to be a teacher in Dubai

Don't know where to begin if you want to teach in Dubai. The Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) in Dubai sets the standards for school instructors, and if you wish to begin working as a teacher in the Emirate, you will need to meet certain prerequisites and complete KHDA courses.

The conditions and guidelines you must adhere to are listed below.

How do I become a teacher in Dubai?

An "initial appointment" or a "teacher appointment," which enables you to teach at a school, is necessary to become a teacher in Dubai. KHDA claims that after a private school in Dubai chooses a teacher for an open teaching job, the school submits an application for the instructor's "Initial Appointment."

Educational qualifications

Depending on whether the instructor is a class teacher or a topic teacher, they must hold a degree from a specified field for their initial appointment:

•A certified bachelor's degree in education (B.Ed), postgraduate certificate or diploma in education, or master's degree in education is required for a class teacher (M.Ed).

•A subject teacher is required to hold a recognized bachelor's degree in the area of instruction.

The teacher in a private school in Dubai must register on the Educator Permit System after the "Initial Appointment" has been made. The administration of the school carries out this.

Language proficiency

You must also possess an International English Language Testing System (IELTS) certificate or any other required language competency certificate in addition to a bachelor's or master's degree. To teach English as a topic, for instance, a teacher must have an IELTS Band Score of at least 7 (IELTS "good user") or an equivalent.

A teacher who instructs in English must have at least a Band 6 (IELTS "competent user") or an equivalent score on the IELTS.

A teacher who instructs students in a language other than English must provide documentation of their language ability as required by the relevant authorities and curricula.

Courses required for teaching English as a foreign language

It is a requirement to also be certified to teach English as a second or foreign language if you are teaching English as a subject. Examples of acceptable qualifications include the following:

Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, Teaching English to 

Speakers of Other Languages, and the Certificate in Teaching English to 

Speakers of Other Languages (CELTA) are all related (TESOL)

Courses required by KHDA

Two KHDA courses must be taken in full, and they are as follows:

You must possess a qualification in teacher preparation that is equivalent to a higher diploma or higher.

KHDA will accept proof that you have successfully completed these qualifying courses or their equivalent from an international university's regional branch in the UAE or a UAE university. Simply check to see if the college or university is approved by the Ministry of Education or recognized by KHDA (MOE). A list of colleges and universities that are authorized to provide these courses is provided by KHDA.

Professional development requirements

You must enroll in this course through one of the KHDA-approved training providers. KHDA also has a list of approved service providers.

legal requirements

Each instructor completing the KHDA registration process must possess the following:

A declaration of fitness certificate, which is essentially a medical examination for employment in the UAE, a letter from the school attesting that the instructor is in good standing, and a police clearance certificate from the UAE.
