I recently worked for a school that was dishonest and unethical. I want to put out a warning to other people who might apply there. So here are my questions:

What's the best way to warn others about a bad eikaiwa?

Will the thread get pulled if i post the name of the school on this website?

This website and Gaijinpot and others are able to run because of advertising dollars from schools, and a significant number of these are scofflaw outfits have little regard for Labour Standards Law.

MOD EDIT

Yes, your message may get pulled, but someone here might remember it (or even copy it) and pass it along if another person asks about the same place.

You could also contact the union and tell them.

You can also post your complaint on www.englishschoolwatch.org

It will probably not get pulled from that site.

Thanks for your help. I wish I had been quicker to check back before the postings were edited. I'll post my officially warning within the next day or so. I want to make sure it's properly written before I post it.

Thanks!

People who read complaints about so called bad and unethical schools should be equally aware that there are bad and unethical teachers who slander good schools.
