Anyone know anything about them? I'm interviewing with them soon so any info about branches, working conditions, etc. would be much appreciated.

Amerikan K�lt�r Derneği Dil Okulları is the Turkish name.

The opportunity just popped up at the last minute so I haven't had much time to research. Any info would help!

Thanks!

From what I've heard, it seems to be one of the better outfits, but that's all secondhand information (and relative, anyways).

Somebody with firsthand knowledge send this man a PM!

Franchise, management changes from place to place. Avoid Silivri at at costs.

I have been working for them for almost 2 years and I'm very happy. I work at the Taksim branch and can't speak for the others. But the system is good. You share classes with Turkish teachers who do all the grammar, and you focus on listening and speaking. You don't have to use the book if you don't want. You are free to do whatever you want. Classes are small, usually less than 5. The pay is standard at 18TL and hour but I feel the benefits are worth it. Also my boss is a half-turkish half-german woman and she's awesome, very nice and flexible.
