Has anyone heard of a langauge school called Mr Bibble Education institute in Kaohsiung?!

Anyone have any information on them?

Hello,

I'm not sure about the "Mr." designation, but I've certainly heard of Bibble.

Schools like that typically focus on teaching Math, Science, and Chinese Essay Writing to older kids (13-15 years of age).

I've never known any 'foreigners' to work there. I'd suspect that it might be a new program they are trying to establish. Expect it to be somewhat disorganized.

By that I mean that you might have large classes of 30 teenagers with mixed abilities. There could also be a lack of curriculum.

Just my guess. I'd ask for 750NT an hour (or more) to start! If the classes are really that large, then you would also need a local assistant in the classroom to maintain order. (You may be tough...but you can't handle a bunch of junior high kids on your own!)
