Has anyone ever heard of this school? I saw terrible things about them on a blacklist.

Well there is no hill in Apgujeong to speak of ... so they are lying already.




Seriously ... I have heard bad mojo ...

Not to be sarcastic, but the black list as you wrote, does have many bad things to say. That in itself should be a warning. Any place that advertises for employees as much as the "school on the hill" has problems. Heed the warnings. It's strange in way; how many times have we read posts about bad school owners, potential teachers check it out, asks questions, doesn't heed the advice, signs anyway and then a month or so later starts complaining about getting screwed over or does complete the contract and then doesn't get paid the airfare/severance!

I don't know of them personally but have read some bad things. But, also, based on the number of times I've seen them advertising I'd have to guess that they are one of the biggest schools in Korea or have an atrocious teacher turnover.

They are not a large school. Enrollment is small, about 300. But they charge a LOT of money for titution because of its location; Kangnam Apgujung area of Seoul. The owner, a woman who graduated from an American university has no people skills at all. She is a phoney. You can see right through her after 10 minutes of talking to her. She has a good line.
