Does anyone know if they are going by this name now?

Just checking because a recruiter/teacher from this school has made contact with me for the purpose of teaching in korea.

Don't speculate. Just straight up tell the recruiter that if it's just another name for Wonderland, you will not sign, and show me another school.

Yeah definitely check with the recruiter. There is another school chain called "W Institute" (I work at one of their franchises). With the level of English over here, miscommunication abounds.

That's also a re-named school. Used to be Ewha until the uni sued them into changing it. As Ewha, they ran into A LOT of financial problems and lost in courts. The name change came at a time they needed to distance themselves from the money fiascoes.

Yeah, tell me about it. The contract I signed in Canada said "Ewha"... a month later, I walk in the school for the first and see "W Language School". For a moment, I had a horrible thought that the wrong school had picked me up from the airport Smile.
