Never worked there but they have been around for years and I've not heard any bad reports. I understand their market base is mostly younger kids. |

decent school. years ago i had several friends and most of them were very content. however they all had a common complaint, the school manager/boss. his initials are PM. i certainly wouldnt take the job if he were still in charge, but then again i have been here for a while and would have lots of other options. maybe u can ask them to provide a list of current teachers or teachers that have left within the past year.
good luck |

I've also heard good things from a veteran of EFL in Surabaya and I'm hoping to apply to work with them in October. I've heard they are very professional. You'd definitely need to be willing to work with primarily young learners though. |

I had two stints at KELT between 1998-2004 and it was a very good experience, made lots of friends both expat and local and developed as a teacher. The conditions and contract were good and the manager was fair.
He liked footy, did the Guardian crossword, had a good sense of humour and trusted his teachers which was enough to make me happy. He had a temper for sure and didn't suffer fools, some teachers couldn't handle that though I have to admit I was never on the receiving end.
I would certainly work there again as the conditions are very good compared to the competition. Mostly younger students from 5-15 year olds, often the same students every year going through the grades so it was nice to see kids develop.
Hip Hip Hooray
It's dear old Mr K
