Libya jobs

[daviddd22]

I have been thinking about teaching in Libya for 18months - 3 years.

Does anyone have ANY idea about the following job providers?:
Al Saqr Al Hur for Educational Services
SRS Bureau
Kortag International

Jobs in the desert seem to be well-paid £18k +, plus free accom., food, laundry, generous breaks etc.

Does anyone have any contacts who have direct experience?
Any horror stories?

Any feedback would be welcome.

Just a word of advice - those companies sound like recruitment agencies. They take a slice of the pie (ie. your wages) 18K is pretty low for that area of the world, You should be commanding at least $250 a day. There are jobs with better pay. If EFL Teachers take low pay positions such as these it only devalues our worth...and I know we all work hard so we should be paid well.
So don't let these guys dictate the rate of pay.
Take care and good luck
