Hey all,

I'm a former teacher for English Time (served 10 months of hard labor) and I'm writing a story for a publication about the ESL scene in Istanbul for any newbies who are job hunting.

If you have any recommendations/horror stories about dershanes, feel free to share.

Just out of interest where will it be published?

I hate to sound a bit full of myself, but perhaps you should stay here for a couple more years before you write about the glories of ESL in Istanbul. Then you will be able to have your own stories to tell instead of having to ask for other people's. However, l must say that a Lonely Planet for ESL does sound interesting.
