You've spammed these forums and all threads. You've got no credibility with the posters. Why don't you contribute something positive before attempting to: a) pass yourself off as a reliable recruiter; and b) I despise the fact that you're trying to pass yourself off as a Canadian - when it is quite obvious that you're not.
Are your available positions offering 8K a month, with accomodation? Are your positions with only one school, or are you farming out to various schools?

I hope that the moderators pull all of your posts until your spam can be verified.

Who or what is 'Canada060'?

This message about having 300 jobs seems to be appearing all over the show. I've never heard of him/them/it.

Sounds very very dubious. 300 jobs in one province - doesn't sound genuine to me.

And they all want 'natives'.
Native Americans used to mean Indians (Red Indians)
Native Australians used to mean the Aobrigines.
Now native means something altogether different.
If one is from a country where English is an official and a first language, has spoken English from infancy, uses English all the time and everywhere - does such a person qualify as a 'native'?
If not, what is he/she in the world of English-teaching - an outsider, a pariah, a persona non grata, a corpse?

And certainly not all "native speakers" are at all fluent in their mother tongue!

Cheers!

Sinobear - Please let's give credit where credit is due. At least Canada60 has not attempted to disguise his/her self-promotion as an authoritative (and condescendingly executed) discussion on culture shock! That's got to be worth something.

And at least it's a sure bet that he's not from New Jersey, either! Wink
