Greetings,

I'm considering a job with a brand new school in the Langcon chain, located in Jinju. I'd like to know anyone's take on the chain's reputation. Obviously, there's no info on the school itself, being brand new. But any opinions on the chain itself, it's reputation and curriculum, would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Old adage...

a) New teacher, old school = no problem. They know how to deal with you and guide you through learning to be a teacher as well as deal with the paperwork.

b) Experienced teacher, new school = minimal problems. You know what needs to be done and can guide them through the processes.

c) New teacher, new school = maximum problems. Avoid at all costs. There is NO good that can come from a disaster such as this. This is usually a "Titanic" adventure.

Pick the scenario that fits.
