Hi Ivy,

I see you top 10 and find it very suspicious, as you may not be aware ambit and bell szezchin are from the same group, these surveys in Poland depend on how much advertising your school does in the publication, after 4 years with Bell, i never once saw any of the so-called questionnaires going to staff members or to students. If a school like Bell comes 2nd and 3rd even though they have one of the largest turnarounds of teachers in Poland, i'm curious where you got your information that the staff were satisfied? As for salary and pay,,thats even funnier, if you really want i can put you in touch with 7 teachers that will confirm this.

seeing as you love to throw your credentials around, could you please quote the appropriate source(s) for this information?

Considering there's over 350 EFL institutions in Warsaw alone, I'd love to see how this table means absolutely ANYTHING to anyone other than a bit of publicity for those schools mentioned. I doubt all the schools in Poland were taken into consideration.

Hey Grrrmachine,

I totally agree with you, its like the newsweek top 100, depends on who throws the most money towards the advertising department that gets the highest ranking, to be honest thoight there was more schools in Warsaw than that. Have no idea where this information is from but to people working here we all know that is inaccurate and complete frabrication.
