Hi Amna,

A lot of wives and daughters work as teachers in schools but most are on husband sponsored visas. Nevertheless, you can build your contacts and search for a vacancy in school and ask them if they are able to sponsor you.

Post in the jobs section.

No, visit visa can't be converted to work or family visa.

The option @live.ali told above is for IQAMA HOLDING ladies on FAMILY VISA. They can change their sponsorship to schools and will get back to their husbands if schools fire them.
