They're the worst school in Turkey!!! Shocked

But seriously, shouldn't you have asked this question BEFORE you started to work with them? Laughing

I was offered a job with them but they only wanted to give me 4 hours per week so I declined. They seemed alright but I did notice that there seemed to be some strange situation with the the native teacher that was there when I went. I got the impression that the situation wasnt good.

To be honest though, I did consider working there and I may have done so had they offered more hours. Its really hard to tell sometimes. Thats why I posted what I did about British and American Culture in Manisa, I think teachers should keep the stream of info flowing about which schools are "safe" and which to avoid.

I hope everything goes well with you.

Well I have quıt working for them .... Their offer was 21 hours per week.. 20tl per hour.. no housing ..Spread out over 6 days.. Pay day was really vague.. Anywhere from the 21st to the 30th of the following month... You could take advances...I took mine daily..just to make sure I wasn't burned..Mountains of papper work..Everything went through the manager not the owner..Felt like I was being subcontracted....It seemed like they were just waiting to burn the teacher. Just bad vibes all around...They have had a real hard time getting a native to work there from what I gathered... Real warning sign...
