'As a teacher in the UAE, can I legally also tutor children?'

Question: I am a teacher at a private school but I would like to do some tutoring on the side to earn some extra income. I teach maths, and there is always a call for private lessons for students of all ages. I think my school lets us do this, but I don’t want to ask before knowing what the law permits. I also need to know what I have to do as I don’t want to do anything illegal or annoy my employers. How do I legally do some tutoring?
