Hello everyone. Just thought I would write a quick review of Premium English Kazan. I worked there a while back and always wanted to give a nice review, but never did. This is a good school. I definitely recommend this place. I'll give you some quick bullet points:

*Owner-The owner is fair and gives you a lot of independence. He's also a seasoned teacher and quite knowledgeable about all things related to teaching English. 

*Administrative staff- The administrative staff were great. Very friendly and supportive. 

*Living arrangements- Great. Spacious apartment with all the necessary living furnishings. All teachers lived alone. It took me about 30-40 minutes to get to work (Metro + walking)

*Classes-I liked that I had quite a variety of classes and levels when I worked there. I taught classes at the actual Premium English location. But, Premium English also had private clients and businesses that I was able to teach at, which were offsite, at a different location. 

*Work atmosphere- It was professional but also fun at the same time.
I enjoyed the working atmosphere at Premium English. And, the holiday parties with staff and students were a lot of fun.

Overall, I was very happy with my time at Premium English. I appreciated how supportive they were. I still remember the first day when I arrived; Premium English picked me up at the airport and even had a nice welcome packet available for me at the apartment with lots of useful information to help me adjust to life in Russia. 

Plus, Kazan is a fascinating city!!! You'll have a blast!!!
