Are Wonderland Schools bad ? I have read the job journal and there are at least 3 posts which totally slate Wonderland schools, are they all generally terrible or is it just the ones specifically mentioned in the journal ? I have been offered a job at Wonderland in Ansan City via Edurange. I always thought Wonderland were supposed to be crap. Do these private schools all have loads of branches. How many branches are we talking about ?

Any advice/info/recommendation on Wonderland, Edurange or Ansan City greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot

check out the blacklists/greylists as well as the job info journal. I can't think of any other name that gets so many complaints.

I automatically avoid all Wonderland and SLP schools, due to the massive amounts of complaints.

In terms of wonderland, check out the www.efl-law.com site. They warn against wonderland, too.

The guy who runs the site is a lawyer, and of all the hagwons in korea, he chose to write a special page just about wonderland.

I think that's about as good an indication you can get to avoid this chain.

wonderland is a franchise school, so a lot of it comes down to the individual owner. If you are considering this school, please get references of teachers there. If they can't provide them/or the references don't sound happy then don't take the job. There are plenty of other jobs out there.
