Private tutor in Dubai

A private tutor job in Dubai means teaching one learner, or a small group of up to six, in a live lesson of 60, 90 or 120 minutes. Educrest collects the enquiry from the learner or whoever registers them and matches it to a tutor. If you live in the UAE, at-home lessons in Dubai run on your MoHRE Private Teacher Work Permit, and that same permit covers the lessons you teach online. If you live outside the UAE, you teach online, on Gulf Standard Time.

Employees and school teachers add a no-objection letter from their employer.
