Nice to see you again mate, enjoy Egypt and stay healthy.
Thanks man. Hope everything is going well on your end.
Happy to see you’re still uploading. Just so you know: if you upload at the pace you do it’s normal you don’t get as much exposure as people who upload daily for example. I am just saying that because you were doing a Q&A where you were talking about not many people watching. It is definitely not the lack of good content😉.
I still think it is a decent amount of views man. Inshallah your subscribers wil gradually go up.
Cant wait to see egypt myself. I am 21 and have to learn arabic and I’m planning to go the end of this year. Your videos are(were) very helpful in my planning.
100% bro. I know I haven’t been consistent with the uploads and it’s the reason why my channel hasn’t grown as much as it should. I accept it’s my own fault but al hamdu lilah for everything. Jazakallah khayr for the reminder bro it’s much appreciated and if I’m still in Egypt when you come let me know if I can help in any way. Btw there’s a channel called make Hijrah which gives info on visas in Egypt and stuff. Check it out in sha Allah.
@@AbuSamraTheExpat thank you for your advice! I will look their channel up inshallah. Good luck with your channel in the future. Inshallah it will stay growing. Enough people enjoy it already😄.
حمدلله على السلامة. Finally Abu Samra is back.
الله يسلمك يا أخي
In sha Allah I’ll be back consistently too.
Abu Samra, you are the MVP bro. Thank you for the video and hope everything in life is well for you. We look forward to your next video.
Thank you for this!
Thank you so much for uploading this!!!!
Thank you so much for watching and so sorry for not working on this sooner ✌🏾
@@AbuSamraTheExpat I honestly appreciate it!!! you broke it down so well aswell! Don’t worry, upload at your own pace we will all be here to watch 😊
Hey Samer, jazakAllah khair. Awesome!! You answered many of the questions I have already. THANK YOU, BUDDY
Wa iyyaki ya Nada. Thank you for your constant support!
Am a housekeeper and a Nanny, i was a waitress in my country and am in Egypt now please i need work
Assalaam aleikuum brother. Thank you for posting this video. It gave a lot of good information. Peace and love to you and your family.
Wa’alaykum wasalam my brother. Thanks for your support man. May Allah bless you and your family and give all of you everything that is good. Ameen.
I'm currently teaching in Korea and I'm thinking of going to Egypt next. Trying to gather information now haha but I probably won't make a decision for another year.
Just came across your channel, love the info!! Love your accent as well. I am TEFL certified but haven't used it yet since i'm studying to be a doctor. Covid as well has slowed things down as far as travel. But great info! =)
Thank you! I wish you nothing but success in your studies. Don’t let covid slow you down! Online teaching has become very prominent in teaching now because of the pandemic and your TEFL certificate will be valued by companies.
Thanks for all of the informative videos! I have a teaching license, but I think I want to just stay on the short term visa and work business. Accommodations sound reallllly good lol.
Thank you for watching them ✌🏾 that’s fair enough. Whatever you wanna do, I hope it goes smoothly for you and that you’ll benefit greatly from it 🙌🏾 I’m actually planning on doing a video on accommodation soon.
@@AbuSamraTheExpat looking forward to it! As of right now; I’m planning to rent a hotel for 2 months and see if I want to stay longer. I’m coming with my dog. If you have any suggestions on coming with animals, I’m all ears. Peace & Love! ✨
I don’t know much about travelling with pets but if you’re gonna stay in a hotel I’d recommend you check with them first to see if pets are allowed. Sorry for the late response btw I forgot to get back to you.
Brother,,, God Bless you! Big help! Good man!!!
Salaam bro thanknyou very beneficial may Allah reward you for advising us. ☝️❤✌
Barakallahu feeky.
Haha the intro came a little unexpected but I loved it 🤣🤣🤣 very cool and informative video ✨
Ahahaha gotta drop in some Arabic every now and then 😂 thank you btw!
@@AbuSamraTheExpatare we to apply for the certa online?
Helpful, thx for info man
Thanks for watching man!
Can you make about working in Egypt as a pharmacy? What are the process to get a job there as a pharmacy? Thank you 🦋
My only question is, do you think its easier to get a job AFTER arriving in Egypt (walk-ins, self introductions, visiting organizations & etc)? Or do you feel the best way to get a job is to apply online and wait for a response
for an interview? The reason I ask is because although I have a Masters degree in Education, I have not received any responses from regular job opportunities as well as teaching opportunities.
It depends on a number of things such as the website/platform you apply on, when you apply etc. I remember sending my CVs in while I was on holiday and I didn’t get a call back. Sometimes the HR department can be a bit Incompetent so try sending your CV to someone in the school and they can get it directly to the owners.
@@AbuSamraTheExpat Thank you for the helpful suggestion! :-) Because I am so ready to get there, but I have my family (hubby and 2 small children). So I must be very careful to ensure the transition is smooth.
You’re very welcome! Yeah, I agree 100% moving to a different country is a big and it’s even bigger when you move with your family so do everything you have to do to ensure you have a smooth transition and to see if it’ll be a good move for you all ✌🏾
@@AbuSamraTheExpat how many months are we to finish the courses
AssalaamuAlaikum, thanks for the video! Which national schools would you recommend in Egypt?
Asalamualaykum, do I need both a degree and certificate, or can I just get a certificate without a degree. I’m from Canada and a degree is 4 years. I was looking to just get a certificate in ESL, TEFL or similar certificate. Is going to be a problem?
Thank you so much for this useful advice! I was just wondering about the salaries. How much approximately would the salary be if you worked in a British international school like Cairo English School if you have QTS, PGCE and experience?
I can’t say for sure but I’ve heard that people make good money and enjoy some good benefits working for major schools.
Thanks for information
Hi,
Im currently living in jordan considering new cairo. Finding work there is, of course important. You dont think any centers would hire you with just a celta in egypt?
Hmmm not too sure tbh it might be possible but I don’t wanna give you the wrong info. The British Council in Egypt hire brits with a CELTA and degree but not sure if they make exceptions for people with no degree.
Assalamu3laykum akhi, would the British Council accept with someone who has an MA in TESOL and 2 years experience, as opposed to the CELTA?
Wa’alaykum wasalam akhi. Allahumma barik. Having a CELTA is a must with the British Council regardless of having a masters as it’s one of the essential requirements. With your qualifications and experience though, you can easily get a university job in Egypt or the gulf in sha Allah.
JazakAllah Khair ♥️
@@tyabmohammad6485 wa iyaak. May Allah give you what’s best. Ameen.
Sorry akhi just to clarify, a masters and 2 years experience is enough to get a uni job in sha Allah not just any qualification and experience 😂 sorry if I didn’t make that clear.
Haha no worries it made perfect sense the first time :-)
And I’m about to apply for a Masters In sha Allah I don’t have one yet!
See you in Egypt soon habibi - بإذن الله
Also, as you mentioned LinkedIn in this video, do you have a LinkedIn profile?
I remember all these websites 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Man, I spent days on them 🤷🏻♂️🤣
You know the struggle 🤣🤣🤣
What about teenagers?
When finding a place in Egypt what website do they go about or how do one go about it
Apologies for the late response. Here’s a video I did on finding accommodation Life In Egypt as an Expat: Finding Accommodation in Egypt
ruclips.net/video/D86RcDmcifc/видео.html
Can you make a video about finding & renting apartments in cairo
I just put that on my list of videos to do next so I’m gonna get on it soon ✌🏾
Great info and video. Thanks a lot for this. I am from the U.S. and have some years of experience, but only a TEFL certificate. Do you think it's worth it for me to get Trinity College certificate to work in Egypt? It sounded like only Britons and Egyptians would really benefit from getting it.
It helps if you have that with experience. In Egypt I’d highly recommend going to schools and getting a PGCE while there. The only centre worth applying to would be the British council but they only hire brits and Egyptians so yeah stick to schools.
@@AbuSamraTheExpat
As salaamu alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu akhy. JazackAllahu Khair for the info. Alhamdulillah my wife and I are relatively new Muslims and considering trying out Egypt to study Arabic and just to see what it's like in general InShaAllah.
If you don't mind, I'm going to check out some more of your videos and I may reach out to you for info again in the future InShaAllah.
@@jovonnibullock1693 Wa’alaykum Salam warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. Congratulations on reverting to Islam and welcome to the family! Feel free to reach out to me at anytime ✌🏾
Hi I'm a native English speaker from Canada I do not have a degree but I am getting my TESOL from Canada do you think I will have a hard time finding employment once I arrive?
Depends on when you apply. Best time to apply is between May and August because that’s when schools are actively recruiting. Based on your credentials I think you should be fine in sha Allah
@@AbuSamraTheExpat do you recommend any websites that are beneficial
@@hanimahamud3052 LinkedIn, TEFL.com and wuzzuf are ones to use.
Thanks for the useful info. What's the average salary range for an ESL teacher in a language center (not British Council)?
Sorry for the late response I’m not actually sure but I don’t think it’s that high. International house is another Center you can consider and it might be a better.
💝💝💝
✌🏾❤️🙌🏾
Assalamu Alaikum WarahmatuAllah
What learning centers are known to give accommodation and flight packages to Native speakers ?
And what is the average pay for a person with a BA CELTA and one years experience.
Wa’alaykum Salam warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. British council is the only centre that I know offers flight packages to native speakers. As for pay the British council will give you a salary according to a pay scale and virtually everyone gets the same salary.
@@AbuSamraTheExpat Does Egypt’s British council only hire Egyptians and Brits?
Yeah Egypt only recruits brits and Egyptians. Some other centres around the world recruit any nationality subject to local law and some only recruit native speakers.
Sorry how is work in egypt ? Do they give assirance if you are working there ?
Some places give you assistance in visa, accommodation etc. It depends on the type of company you work for.
Assalamu alaykum,
Can you tell us what to expect in terms of starting salary at international schools and centers as well? Also will they cover the tuition of my kids (I have 3) in full? I heard international schools tuition in Egypt is very expensive.
Wa’alaykum wasalam. Yeah I forgot to mention that in the video my bad. For native speakers maybe around 10000/13000. Centres will prob pay around 7000. Yeah, some schools will pay for your tuition but I’m not sure how many schools actually offer that. International schools are deffo more expensive but in all honesty, there are national schools there that are good despite being a lot cheaper.
@@AbuSamraTheExpat Jazakallah khair . Is this Egyptian currency?
Asalam alaika, can i get a job with dental diplomatic certificate ????????
Wa’alayka Salam. I can’t answer because I don’t know much about that field but contact me on Instagram and I can try and ask my dentist what the process.
Please tell me about French language job opportunity in egypt
There are french schools and a french centre but I’m not sure what qualifications you would need.
السلام عليكم
Why did CELTA reject you? Aren’t you a C2 in English? They should have accepted you 🤔
وعليكم السلام
Cambridge themselves didn’t reject me it was the centre I applied to. I couldn’t even ask for feedback. I’m British born and raised so it didn’t have anything to do with my language but maybe my knowledge of grammatical rules. The institution I applied for (international house) are known to have a rigorous selection process. I guess you could say it was my fault because I should’ve prepared well for it but I applied one day before the deadline and rushed it instead of taking the time to learn some grammar and make sure my application was up to standard. It ended up working well for me because on the CertTESOL we covered grammar and phonology so that helped a lot. Plus the CertTESOL is just as intense, informative and rewarding as the CELTA and both are 120 hours with observations. Their modules are almost identical as well.
Hello bros am motor mechanic p professional can I get my job in Egypt please
@@johnnyuyana9914 I don’t know much about that field in Egypt. Have you thought about other countries?
That's my professional work in Dubai for before coming back to Nigeria here and why I'm talking about Egypt because the visa is not difficult

My dream is to live there but I’m from Brazilian. Someone know any company who hire foreigners? 🥲
Sorry for the late response. Try looking for international companies that hire foreigners. I’d recommend checking on LinkedIn and wuzzuf.net
