Hi Theresa,

my wife is also going to Oman this month as an english instructor also. she's planning to bring us also in oman come this april 2014. i also have the same question as you have. did you apply from RPR agency also? my wife is supposed to leave for Oman this oct. 19.

Bert

Yes, I am also from RPR.  I dont know how it is really there.  Have you heard anything from someone who has come before your wife?  I also plan to bring my family.. but currently am having second thoughts of coming because I am torn to leave my daughter...

bago lang din ako dito sa forum na ito, my wife is still here and she's scheduled to leave on Oct. 19. baka nga magkasabay pa kayo. gusto din nya kame isama sa Oman and live there while she's working. ganyan din palagay ko ang dilemma ni misis ko. hindi nya matiis na maiwan mga anak namin.

I have a permanent job dito sa pinas, 17 yrs na ako dito sa work ko and im enjoying kaya im having 2nd thoughts of leaving.

Yung Dad ng wife ko has been working in Oman siguro for 15 yrs or more na kaya lang sa oil field sya. pero yung sister ng wife ko na nasa UK has a friend there na may kapatid sa Oman. sabi daw nila ok sa Oman, may philippine school para sa mga anak ng pinoy. 50 OMR per month ang tuition fee. pero sa tingin ko hindi mapapantayan ang ganda ng education doon ang education dito sa atin. yun nga lang magtitiis ka na malayo sa pamilya mo.

naka pirma ka na ba ng contract mo? nakapag pa medical ka na din ba?

you can reach me at 09279403161

one more thing, aside from your 550 OMR salary, for sure meron ka din mga allowance. yung sa wife ko halos 1500 OMR ang total salary nya. kung 3 lang kayo sa tingin ko kasyang kasya yung kikitain mo dun. pero kung ipapadala mo dito kahit kalahati lang ng sweldo mo, magiging maginhawang maginahawa ang pamilya mo dito.

Hi betzgadja !

As this is the anglophone forum could you please post only in English?

Thanks
Armand

my apologies!!!!

Hi betzgadja!

When is your wife leaving?  I will be leaving on December, am working on my retirement papers..   This means I should shoulder the booking fee. ( As per the agency's notice) Just a few questions:
  1.  Do you have any idea of how Omani students are?  ARe they
      wild or manageable? 
  2.  Could we be given security in our job if our contract will
      only last us for a year-- though its renewable..
  3.  Am still thinking if I should push though with this or not..
      If in case I dont.. what could be the repercussions?  Will
      the MoH sue me for resigning early though I have not started
      with the teaching yet?

My wife is scheduled to leave on Oct. 19 but she's tryin to convince the agency to allow her to leave on November. How much would be the cost of booking fee?

I have no idea on how Omani students are but i guess coming from my father in law, omani's are good people.

your contract is 2 years right? and it depend on you if you still want to continue. There are plenty of filipino's in Oman and thats a plus to you not getting bored in there.

According to the agency it will cost $309.  But the airlines said it will only be amounting to $75.00.  I will have to email the agency to clarify.

Am currently working on my retirement papers.  Hoping everything will work well.

Hi Theresa,

my wife got her flight scheduled changed to Nov. 1. she never mentioned anything about her paying for the booking fee. you may want to join her on that flight date. She already filed her resignation officially. Just be positive that when you get there, everything will be alright. Oman is a peaceful country.

Maybe you would like to get in touch with her thru her celfone number. ill txt it to you!

Hello! It depends on the age of your students.

Oh, thank you.  How is it teaching at the Ministry of Health?  How are clinical instructors there?

Hello, actually I am teaching for Kindergarten pupils

Hey,

I hope you have a pleasant experience here in Oman. I'm from London and I was teaching English last year in Saudi, and I'm currently teaching in Oman - I LOVE OMAN!

The people are friendly and the students are the same as students all over the world, they're students and will always be students - They only differ according to the customary norms.

Best regards,
Elias
