Dear oxford123,

You can say that again - and again, and again, and again, and again. So, why five threads with the same message?

If you don't know how to remove a post, look in the right-hand corner of your posts; you'll see an "X." Click on it, and you'll be asked if you want to delete the post.

Regards,
John

Dear lazycomputerkids,

"Inadvertent spam . . . ."

Inadvertent?? Well, I could see one or even - maybe - two duplicates as being "inadvertent." But four?????
Anyway, seems someone cleaned it up.

Regards,
John

sorry, I myself was surprised to see all these messages repeated though I clicked on 'submit' just once! I'm sure it's a technical glitch but by no means a SPAM !

OK...
Here's what the people in charge at the ELI at KAU told me when I called them: "it's more than likely that there's a teacher at the English center that is not a good teacher, or has done something very wrong and we have asked the teacher to leave. We might have told the teacher the reason is due to a lack of educational experience as an excuse to get rid of the teacher�. There's more to this "story" than we are lead to believe. You want some more proof? Send me a private message and I will be happy to give anybody the phone number of the people in charge at the ELI at KAU. I have lived in Jeddah for 14 months and I know many people at the English center, including one of the three people in charge of the contracts between KAU and the Western English teachers. There is no reason to stir up this amount of BS unless the person who posted this and the other post has a hidden agenda. Get a life and stop spreading rumors that you can't back up. If you can back them up, than where's your proof? Oh, I see, there is none. Again, PM me and I'll give anyone the proof that is story is a lie.

at a time when KAAU is mass-recruiting for English teachers, its hard to believe.

Yes, thank you!! The EFL center is expanding and they need more teachers. I wonder what the person who is posting the falsehoods about KAU did to lash out in his/her smear campaign.

Yawn Oxymoron 123.

Very feeble attempt. I simply asked for your proof, and all we get is your rants and insults. Sigh. I guess you have proven yourself and are showing your true colors. You said you have been in KSA for 14 years, yet you just starting posting on Dave's a couple of weeks ago. I think you just created this profile to put up your lies about the ELI program at KAU. Did they hurt your feelings?

Post under your real handle.

Tell you what, just PM me with your proof and let's be professional enough to talk about this between us two. Why involve everybody? All you are doing is creating nervousness and confusion along those teachers that might want to come to KAU. I have something called professional pride in both my profession and my place of work. I have a very direct question for you: Why are you the only one that has this �news� about the EFI program at KAU? Because it�s not true.

Again, where�s your proof? Try to be a little more professional.
