Greetings,
I am planning on going to Turkey ASAP to teach English and I'm wondering which are the best schools (all though I suppose this is quite subjective) and if anyone knows specifically who is hiring right now. I have a phone interview with English Time soon (I have read the mostly bad things people have said about them. Are they true? Does this matter?). I am not going to Turkey to make money. What is the best website for Turkish ESL job postings? Thank you to those who reply.

I also have a phone interview with English Time soon - tonight actually, at 3am my time. I have heard good and bad about many schools so I guess it's really a personal choice at to which is the "best". It all depends on what you want to get out of this experience, though making money wouldn't be bad.

Any one care to define that word "school " . So-called language schools should be exempted from this IMHO .

Start with a minimum "package " before you consider ANY "school" .

"School" is another relative term.

Unless it's for fish.

A 'fish school' is not without its own problems of definition ... how many fish make a school?

Yeah, and what if it's a bunch of fish hanging out together but not actually schooling?
