I guess this is common the world 'round. Shifting the blame. Typical human response.
I was actually at a school where the school didn't want to pay my plane ticket as agreed. So I went to the government office to complain. The school made their list of complaints to the government officer. So the government officer came to investigate. High, very high ratings from other Chinese teachers and from the students. next day the school president asks me to the office and says he is sorry for the confusion, and we had a nice dinner. Happens here in China too.
Of course sometimes it's the other way around. The teacher does bad, and the teacher's reponse is to badmouth the school.
Don't carry any resentment with you as you head to the next chapter of your life, it's heavy baggage. Right decision, I think, to leave. Remember the good part with the students
Smooth sailing |

I'm leaving Poland for good. I've known many non-Polish ESL teachers in PL and they all said that Poland will eat you up and spit you out. I refused to beleive it. But now I do.
thanks all |
In a few months time, you'll realise that this was a decision. Plenty of new countries and continents to explore. Life's too short. Just put this behind you and look ahead.
Good luck with it all. |

| Sadly most owners just want to keep the students and add more and pay little attention to the actual "atmosphere" of the class. |
