My girlfriend and I have narrowed our search to two programs: i-to-i and Teach Away. Does anyone have any input or experience with one or both of these programs?

We are both college grads looking to teach for one year, preferably at a private language school so that we can be flexible with our start/end dates. Any input would be greatly appreciated!!!

Why approach such programs. Go straight to the language school chains (Aeon, Geos, ECC, Berlitz, etc): i-to-i charge for a rip off training and placement service; Aeon (e.g.) would pay you full wages for training.

Teach Away I know nothing about but it sounds like another nonsense pay-to-teach scheme.

I agree. There is no need to pay someone to place you in a job when you can be hired directly by the schools/agencies here just as easily without having to pay a fee. The majority of people teaching here didn't come on that kind of program.
