In my opinion, NO. The lady I worked with never did what she said she would when she said she would. She would often sign onto skype at odd US hours and expect me to be right there to answer any questions. Also, she does not follow up with schools!

Hope this helps!

i would use esl-planet, touch4teaching, and globalcampusjobs.

they're pretty big, and esl-planet is really well-known throughout these forums so there's no going wrong with them. contact rowan for esl-planet. he's really (REALLY) straight-forward and direct. at first i thought he was lying to me, with how direct he was, but he actually offered me a job already. nice.

touch4teaching has tons of jobs available (you can just see them on their website), so if your bf doesn't get the gepik position then he can always fall back on something else with them.

gbc: all the ppl there are really nice and genuine. i worked with jay and sophie. jay personally called me to answer the questions i emailed him, and so they're pretty legit.

and there are tons more out there~ so just keep looking Smile
but just a word of advice, i would tell your bf to use more than one recruiter when looking for the right job. especially with pub schools in korea (like GEPIK/EPIK). i'm no expert on this, but if you look at the threads on this forum there are tons of info about this. also, based on my experience...well, the more the better. some recruiters lie. some are just plain confusing. and some are just rude to the point you don't want to work with them.

so your bf should really be looking into more recruiters than just y&g, unless he is already doing so. (this is also why i'm going to a hagwon now, don't want to deal with this recruiter nonsense anymore...).

anyway, hope this helps Smile
