Hello,
I wonder what is the importance of being a teacher or teaching in very poor countries?
I think, Education need money, and to build a lot of schools for students. In addition you cannot find a job after graduation.
What do you think? Is that normal and poor countries can get benefited of that?

Poor countries can certainly benefit from teachers. Why wouldn't they be able to find a job after graduation?

Yes, you are right.
They can be teachers and have a lot of jobs but their salary will be weak and not high enough to educate their children.

They won't get paid much. I'm fact, they won't be able to educate their own children.

I guess you mean they won't be able to send them (their children) to school.

Yes, they won't be able to send their children to school because are poor and their salary is low.

Does everyone have to pay to send their children to school in Saudi Arabia?

That doesn't fit with what I've found online. Here's what I found when I Googled "free education for young children in Saudi Arabia" - "In Saudi Arabia primary education through to high school is open to everybody and is free."

No, I mean poor countries, very poor countries.
Here you pay for private and international schools.
My viewpoint, how education can be benefit for them.

Now I'm confused. Are you still asking how being a teacher in very poor countries can benefit the teacher, or are you asking how education can help the general population in those countries?

African countries and other parts in Aisa are poor and education needs money
Some schools ask parents money to buy materials like desk, boards, and other materials,

I'm not sure what you mean by the underlined part. Do you mean that parents need money to send their children to school, or do you mean that the education system in general requires a lot of funding?

I don't know what that has to do with the thread.

In reply to your message 9, I am asking why you become a teacher and get low salary in poor countries and why you have to pay as a parent for the schools to learn your children. Why not education be free all around the world and be supported
The welfare of education which is clear in rich countries encourages people to join the education field and to be a teacher.
I think education is the most important things and all countries should support it and make it possible for all children around the world.
I hope you get my point.

@sdgsdg Perhaps:

Why did you become a teacher considering that the pay is so low?

Or:

Why would anybody want to become a teacher considering that the pay is so low?

Is it one of those two?

Or, you can say I mean both.

No, it doesn't refer to the past. It's about a decision people make at present time that concerns their future.
