Dear ESL Cafe Subscribers,
This is a warning to anyone considering a position at The American ESL Center. It is a center located on Queen Rania Street near Jordan University. I worked there from September through December and received NO SALARY! People warned me before I got the job there that others, who worked at the center, did not receive their salary either, but I did not listen.
I worked my tail off, and the owner of the place, along with her husband completely cheated me. They particularly choose American citizens because the owners assume that most Americans who work there will leave the country and not fight for their rights. Furthermore, the owners of the center come from a huge family. Because Jordan is such a tribal country, big families with power can get away with lots of criminal acts (like hiring people and not paying them a salary).
Please take what I have written under considertation. These people are liars and thieves!!

To repeat a previous post from 2009, the American ESL Center is not AMIDEAST or the American Language Center. The ESL Center has had a bad reputation for some years now.
Stick to the better known and dependable employers in Jordan.

| Most private schools in the area are places that you do not want to be in. |

In response to the latter posts, The American ESL Center has no affiliation with Amideast or The ALC. The American ESL Center is a fabricated organization and the owner previously worked at the ALC and stole the ideas from their center and opened up her own (currently titled The American ESL Center located on Queen Rania Street).
The center is not a private school - it is a learning center for adults interested in registering for English classes. |

What is the difference between a "learning center" and a "school" ?
If it is not a state-funded institution how does it generate income ? From students ? Then it is a private school ! |

Some of us may define a private business that teaches English to adults as different from a private school that teaches K-12. It's all confusing...
