Since people here are too scared to list the location and name of their crappy schools, just PM me the info and I'll put up a recent 2008-2009 blacklist for the newbies. That way they can avoid one bad school in a chain of schools instead of the whole chain.
To submit a school, the school must have screwed you over in 2007 or later. |

Maybe if she were to do a "research project" and collect "data" from posters here, and then post her "results" on another "academic" site, this would be the ideal "Master's thesis" for a TESOL "student".............
Possibly. |

Here's a question for you: Why not let the whole chain take the blame for their bad apples? The more shame the bad apples bring to the chain works in favor of getting the chain headquarters to get serious about policing their franchises.
What would be even better is if the Korean government would actually get serious and start fining the franchise headquarters in addition to punishing local franchises. |

That would be ideal, but I don't see it happening. |

I think that's a good way of thinking for the teacher's home country. It doesn't matter if a chain is bad, another one can just go to the mother source of teachers (their home country) and get another.
If we just let the system do what it does best, screw the teachers, then the really bad apples will make such a bad name for the rest that no one will want to come here. In that case, you don't have a chain looking after itself, but you have all chains hopefully improving their treatment. |

It'll get deleted for sure.
Dave's is a censored website. Any comments that could affect his bottom line get tossed pronto. |

Are you talking about on here or a different website. If it is on a different website linked to this one no won't get deleted. I see about 10-15 threads a year about blacklists (and those are only the ones that I actually catch). The problem is that that blacklists get outdated quickly and that the information is often sketchy and one sided.
If you try posting a blacklist on here, likely it will get pulled.
That organization that just started up (oh, I don't remember their name) is suppose to start some kind of rating system. Whether or not it pans out is yet to be seen. |

Here you go:

click the link and scroll down.
Looks like the latest entry was just last month, so I can't see why we need a new one, but suit yourself. |

Why are these black list sites always designed by the color blind and that has no concept of basic web design or continuity?
