| Anything Else? | |
| Best way to judge a school is to ask them if you can chat to their other foreign teachers. If they say no, move on. If they introduce you to their teachers then they’re probably cool. Does the staff look happy? Are they helpful and sincere? Try to contact directly with the schools — DO NOT use any sort of agency, and if you do, NEVER let them hold your passport. An agent may promise you housing, travel pay, free beer, etc., but they will work you like a slave, treat you like dirt and keep up to 30 or 40% from your *real* salary. You’ll do much better on your own. | |
