Hi there
I've worked with BSK for quite some time now. I haven't had any problem with them.
They pay quite well, always on time.
They offer textbooks, flashcards, CDs, pacing schedules, and teaching assistants for your classes.
Visa, flight re-imbursement, no headaches.
I know quite a few other teachers there. Nobody seems unhappy.
I'm signing with them again.
Hope that helps. |

I did accept and I decided on Qing-pu because I want to save money and the housing is paid for. Maybe I will meet you soon. |

11,000 for 25 classes, 12,900 for 30 classes and 14,000 for 35 classes. no office time.. just teach and go home.
Housing is included in Qing-pu, some allowance for another city and you have to pay for housing in Shanghai. |

Thnx |

I'm hearing very schizophrenic reports about this school on the Cafe. Is it a good school or not?
Your help is appreciated.
Cheers!  |

I am not sure if it is good or bad... but Worpt emailed me and gave me a lot of information. Anytime I send an email to BSK, I always get a response. I have read some bad things but most were from years back so maybe things are better these days. I am not sure. I am going to take my chances and go for it! |
