W, previously ALS, and EWHA are a larger hogwan chain...there are many in and around Seoul.

Some have been facing financial problems, some have been sold off as franchise schools...depends on the branch.

...get in touch with teachers currently working at the school your are considering through email or by phone if at all possible.

Sorry, don't work there. But find out if that branch has been recently sold. Mine was and we've got new owners that are trying to run the place well.

I used to work at one in Daegu and out of all the franchises in the city, about 90% of the foriegners that I new were unhappy. Do a search on EWHA or American Language School or EHWA ALS and see what comes up. If it were me in your situation, I'd look elsewhere. Remember that recruiters are a dime a dozen and there are many jobs here. This website might help you broaden your search. www.worknplay.co.kr
