Highlights: About Dubai...
Most internationally flavoured of all seven Emirates of United Arab Emirates and shopping capital of Middle East, Dubai is a place hard to ignore. With a history that goes far back and a present that is vibrating with trade, tradition, celebration and sporting events, Dubai is an ultimate destination for many.

Sightseeing, exploring the places beyond the city limits, having some fun in the amusement parks, and shopping in the duty free shops of Dubai are some of the options that you may like to explore when you are here. There are enough opportunities to participate in the sporting events that continue throughout the year and they should not be missed. Complete with many bars and cafes, Dubai has an exciting nightlife.

There are numerous parks and gardens situated in Dubai, which offer a peaceful respite from the daily rush of urban life. Some of the famous ones are Jumeirah Beach Park, Dubai Creekside Park, Mushrif Park, Al Mamzar Park and Safa Park. Dubai is aiming to have the biggest and best - the world's tallest building, the world's first underwater shopping mall and the largest indoor ski slope - Ski Dubai! See it for yourself and you will understand why thousands of ex-pats from the US, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and more call Dubai home.

Why Abu Dhabi?
Abu Dhabi is the largest of the seven emirates making up the United Arab Emirates and constitutes nearly 80% of the nation's total land area including nearly 200 islands. The cities of Abu Dhabi and Al Ain, are the two largest in the emirates. While Abu Dhabi is a vibrant and captivating city with an impressive skyline, parks and gardens, luxury hotels, palatial villas and mansions, wide boulevards and beaches, Al Ain, the Garden City of the UAE, has an abundance of greenery with well-maintained parks and gardens. The oasis city, 148 kms from Abu Dhabi, also has a history dating back to 4 millennium BC.

As the Capital of the UAE, this emirate is the centre of government and business life in the UAE. Abu Dhabi's oil wealth has been wisely utilized to encourage a healthy trade and commerce atmosphere, including those apart from oil industries. State-of-the-art communication services and transport, the presence of all the international luxury hotel chains, rich shopping malls, cultural centres and events have made the emirate a favourite destination for visitor and home to many nationalities.

For an average tourist/visitor, this is one of the safest tourist destinations in the world with some of the best facilities. Activities range from shopping in the upmarket shops to haggling in the souk (market), to riding a camel in the desert, to sampling Bedouin hospitality under the night sky.

About China
The Lonely Planet says: Eagerly assuming its place among the world's top travel destinations, even more so since Beijing took centre stage at the 2008 Olympics, China is an epic adventure. From the wide open and empty panoramas of Tibet to the push and shove of ShànghÎi, from the volcanic dishes of Sìchu?n to beer by the bag in seaside Q+ngdÎo, a journey through this colossus of a country is a mesmerising encounter with the most populous and perhaps most culturally idiosyncratic nation on earth.

The sheer diversity of China's terrain takes you from noisy cities fizzing with energy to isolated mountain-top Ming-Dynasty villages where you can hear a pin drop. Shanghai's ambitious skyline is a triumphant statement, but it couldn't be further from the worldly renunciation acted out in Tibet's distant monasteries.

China is the fastest-changing country in the world. The events of the last 50 years have altered images of this vast unknown land and, until recently, many people's perception was of little more than an overpopulated, oppressed, Communist country.   Fortunately, China has opened up, in its own way, challenging pre-conceptions. Amazing wealth exists side-by-side with poverty and the growing middle class are eagerly exchanging their bicycles for motorcycles and work unit housing for smart new apartment complexes.

Teachers must be fully trained to teach in state schools in one of these countries and possess full qualification/certification with teacher training such as a Bachelors or Masters of Education, PGCE, Higher Diploma in Education, etc. South African teachers with only a diploma of education will have very limited opportunities as most Ministries of Education require a Bachelors degree in Education, and do not like the word Diploma.
