Hello fellow Dave cafesters!!! I have a question about this school regarding if its legit or there are no problems or struggles. There is an offer for me where I get paid 1500 TL per month with free accomadation but I have to pay my own airfare and I work 26 hours a week (weekends off). Also there is only two weeks off in the winter and that's it. I am hoping if someone knows about this school and the worthiness of the offer?? Thanks!

I know nothing about the school and I'm only responding because of the low wage. You'll be hard pressed to save anything and daily life won't be fun with low funds. My advice is to find a job that pays more.

I agree. That's really low.

66% of my base salary. You need at least 1800--2000 to live comfortably and save.

It sound like you are talking about Just English as it's the only school I've heard of that offers 1500 lira and free accommodation. It would depend on the city. I know 2 people that worked for them in Bursa and neither said they couldn't make ends meet, but if this is for a place like Istanbul, that wage is too low even with free accommodation.
