      2. This place was a nightmare. They accused us of lying on our resumes when we hadn’t. They turned off our phone. They were using us to commit tax and insurance fraud. They didn’t file our paperwork so we were working illegally. When we tried to straighten out our work visas ourselves, they refused to give us the documents we needed and then threatened to send Immigration after us. They wouldn’t not give us supplies (black markers for art classes, nothing special.) They shorted my pay the first month and never reimbursed me. The list goes on. We worked in Korea for 2 years and never had this much trouble. This is a horrible, horrible place to work. Do not go there.

      3. I am the founder and headmaster of the Thomas Jefferson School(TJS). I took early retirement from the College of Education at the Ohio State University to found TJS in 1992. We have hired 3 to 6 ESL teachers per year since the school opened in 1993. The great majority have been wonderful individuals who have made a great contribution to our English program. For example a recent graduating class took the TOEFL and half (10/20)qualified to get into Harvard on the basis of their English. A Harvard grad prepped them. Unfortunately a few ELS teachers come with serious personal problems which, regrettably, we can not solve. Incidentally, we rated #12 of 425 paid private schools in Chile on the Chilean university admissions test the PSU.
      For the past 12 years we have had 10 to 12 student teachers from Ohio State U. do part of their professional practice at TJS for a one month period. Needless to say, the OSU professors would not send us their students year after year if it were a bad experience for them. Twelve Wright State student teachers spend the month of November, 2008 with us on a similar program. Two are planning to return in March to teach for a year.
      As the introduction to the school reviews says carefully evaluate all comments before you reach a conclusion. As my father used to say “Paper takes anything”.
      I wish you the Best,
