I am being pursued by an organization called McGill International Constultants. The have a subsidiary in Vancouver called Century College.

These two companies are trying to hire me for a job at a Cram School(?) in Tainan. I have no idea about the quality of McGill, but Century College has been honest with me so far. The offer was for 55,000NT per month, at 25 hours/week. There is no mention of accomodation allowance.

And what about Tainan? I mean, I am relatively young, single guy. How's the city for nightlife and activities?

Any information greatly appreciated!

Century College probably doesn't know what they are getting into. They will figure it out pretty quickly. It usually only takes one law suit and a lot of angry parents and students to make it obvious.
Agents in Taiwan are scum of the earth, they will lie to you, cheat you and leave you for dead. They do the same to the schools they place you with.
Stay away from agents. Far too many people are burned by them.
Good Luck
