[@stephaniejordan8025]

Your video was very informative. It really helps knowing what to expect when I arrive in the UAE and things to consider bringing. Thanks so very much!

[@AMillionMinds]

All of them are powerful and our shows are engaging because of the guests who graced us...we have so much more in store!

[@clearingthechaos7451]

Such wonderful and engaging conversations.

[@AMillionMinds]

Wisdom all the way around!! That's why I love talking tea!!

How are the outlets? Do you have to get a converter? Also, what about African-American hairstylist? Are there many?

[@AMillionMinds]

buying converters here are easy and cheap....the outlets are nothing you have seen before and the wattage is higher....so I have heard of people burning out blow dryers, or small appliances from the states because the different wattage...electronics are fine in the adapter....and you can purchase those things here (and you want to because they are formatted for these currents) I don't know where you are stationed...there are Black Hairstylists and hairstylists for black women (africans to, not just AA) Dubai and Abu Dhabi...no problem once you get here you will get plugged in..if you are stationed in a different area, you will probably be in braids until you come to the big city)

When did you receive your first pay check? And how much money in general should I bring with me to last til my first paycheck?

[@AMillionMinds]

That is the show that will be released on Friday!! Tune in, we got all your questions ready to be answered!!

[@MSperry2U]

Tribal Educational Solutions thanks!

[@MSperry2U]

Does resources include manipulative for math? Or will schools have manipulatives? What about classroom libraries for English teachers? Will the school have books or should we bring our own read aloud

[@AMillionMinds]

Truly depends on your school....as well probably your grade level as well those are questions to ask.

[@melanieallen9979]

I'm going through Teachaway. I want to know how long is someone put up in a hotel when they move over? It's hard to know what to bring(as far as lessons) because I don't know what it where I will be teaching.

[@AMillionMinds]

thanks for watching....Teachaway is a recruiting agency and the time frames for all of that is varied...I can't give you a solid answer. Digitize everything and put into google drive so you can access whenever...and trust that you may be moved a few times....you will figure it all out and grab you a buddy system and ya'll can go to brunch and soothe your troubles away.

[@melanieallen9979]

Thank you

[@melanieallen9979]

Also, what does Grade 1 mean?

[@AMillionMinds]

1st grade....

[@melanieallen9979]

Tribal Educational Solutions thank you again. I've never taught elementary; especially nothing less than 5th grade). This will be a new experience. I wonder what I can use as a guide. Do you suggest TPT?
