I'm narrowing my search of hakwons and haven't seen much updated information about YBM international academy or Poly Schools. I would really appreciate information about the two institutions...word of mouth or people who are working there...etc.

Just remember that each school can be different from others of the same franchise. I worked at a POLY school and had a much better time than those who worked at different branches. That was because each branch was run differently.

My experience with Poly school was extremely negative. They present a good image but that's about it. However, as riley states above, it probably depends on the branch. Unfortunately, I was at a branch run by dishonest morons.

Try not to apply to Yes Youngdo. Yes Youngdo is one of the worst school I have worked with. They have no respect for the teachers. Its their way or the high way.
