I saw a few of you post that you were going to be working for the IH school in San Jose. Now that you're there, would you mind sharing your knowledge?

- Are teachers generally happy with their job? Do you feel the reality of working there matches the impression you were given before arriving?

- Does the school invest in professional development for teachers? Is there a DOS?

- Do you spend all your time commuting to in-company classes? How many hours do you actually spend a week working?

- What kind of lifestyle are you able to have on what you're paid? i.e. do you make enough to have your own apartment or is more realistic to rent a room? Are you able to save money or travel?

- Is this a good job compared to other jobs available in the area? (example, teaching at a private high school)

Thanks to anybody who answers

I'm bumping this up as IH has vacancies open now. Anything from current or former teachers would be appreciated.
