Any info on Chester School of English? I've just seen their ad on TEFL.com and they seem OK and quite professional in comparion to other outfits in Madrid which will remain nameless.
Has anyone worked there before? If so, what are they like?

Hi there,
I haven't worked for Chester myself, but I have two friends who've worked for the school, both of them for several years, and they speak highly of it. It has a pretty good rep among Madrid's host of language schools and is quite a big operation, which advertises for staff from time to time in "El Pais". The only thing I don't like the sound of with Chester is that I think you have to work alternate Saturdays during your first year. Anyway, good luck if applying.
