				| Don't apply to Gorchaokov School in Pavlovsk (a suburb of Saint Petersburg) 
 Orange language school were very professional when I dealt with them. EF seemed ok. Depending on your qualifications there are some excellent schools if you possess a teaching certificate (NOT EFL certificate)

				| Stay away from Reward, too. They've recently opened up a centre there. There's a thread in this forum which explains why they're one to steer clear from. |  |

 Yeah, I've heard about their school in Volgograd, they don't sound very nice to deal with.

 All bad, Anna Markovna even treats her husband like a slave, you will be dirt expected ti work 50 hours a week, 7 days, and poorly paid and you get nothing but a snarl.  Avoid that school like the plague, they offer half the normal rate at best.
 
 I can write some other comments on god and bad ones to work at.
