I was wondering if anyone has heard of this company and if they've had good (or bad) experiences with them.

Hi there:

Apparently they don't have their own website, but just in case you missed it, I found this advert:

Just seen this one as well

http://www.tesall.com/JobBoard/index.pl?noframes;read=439

this is an excerpt. no idea what he was doing but

"Cost of living in Thailand is extremely cheap and 15, 000 Baht is more than adequate for one person. It�s best to plan a little but in general you should have no problems having a good time with that amount of money"

a good time on 15000/mth?. Ummm, no. probably if your accomodation is paid for you and you eat only thai food or are in the middle of nowhere then maybe. forget about cinema, pizza a good night out on that.

Teph Why do you want to know about them? To work for them to get their TESOL Cert?.....

If you give us more info then we can give you better replies.

Remember if its free, it cant be worth much or if its too good to be true it usually is or.....

"Good" salaries in Bangkok are those worth 40kB or more, especially if you're not working weekends and/or if you don't have to be at the school when not teaching. Note that some schools will say "oh lots of overtime" but don't count on that, and you could always get overtime at another school anwyay. Outside of Bangkok 30kB or more is "good."

"Great" salaries are 50kB or more. Anything at 15kB or less should be considered volunteer work.
