" Greetings from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. We may be moving to the UAE this year, and starting to look at schools for our 2 boys (seven & four). Does anyone know of any elementary/primary schools that offer a strong second language program in French? This would help in narrowing our search. Is there an Alliance Francais in Dubai? Also, what are our chances of finding a tutor to teach Chinese (Mandarin) in Dubai? Thanks! "

" Hi, I lived in the UAE for over 5 yrs, until late 1999. The Choueifat School in Dubai is one of many international schools in the country that have French in their curriculum from early grades. Choueifat follows the SABIS system -- I don''t know much about this system, but this link will give you more information on that and Choueifat: http://www.sabis.net/iscdubai.html Alliance Francaise in the UAE is located in Abu Dhabi, which is about 1 to 1 1/2 hours'' drive by car. It will not be practical for you to drive all that distance for lessons, unless you do it once a week, maybe on weekends. If you wish, I can give you their address and contact no. Si vous desiree plus de reseignments de l''ecoles, contactez-moi et je vous enverrai les websites qui je trouve sur l''internet. Mon e-mail est french@info.com.ph Cherie "
