Re HAMPSONS 2??

I have FIRSTHAND knowledge about how HAMPSON operates. No one will reveal who the owner of the school is. Hampson is not even accredited to operate in Shenzhen they ARE NOT licensed. Look at the plaques on the walls or ask them to show their Shenzhen license THEY CANT, BECAUSE THEY DONT HAVE ONE!

HAMPSON IS A PYRAMID SCHEME DESIGNED TO SCREW 2 ENTITIES - THE STUDENTS AND THE TEACHERS!

And here is how it works:
#1 they let anyone work there. They dont check out credentials or experience or education background. You could be a Child Molester

I saw that 2 - they allege it's a PROFESSIONAL SCHOOL however failed to realize that english is a proper noun therefore requires an E not an e -

Now don't start ripping them apart yet, but, this sure as hell sounds like Hampsons all over again. Anyone got any info on this group? They can't capitalize the word English, center is spelled in Brit English, and I doubt they are from the U.K.

Just a small point. There's no such thing as British English or for that matter American English, both being oxymoras, or oxymorons if you must. English is English is English, it doesn't come from anywhere save England. Other countries use English at their native language, but it's only English people when asked "do you speak English?" can answer, "Of course I do, I am English!"

Now, what we should say is, English the way the English speak it or English the way the Americans speak it, and so on.

I have noticed that when I'm in China I will never be referred to by an American as English, why is that? Well, I know why!

American's often use badly thought out spelling changes-this was mainly a political decision rather than improving the language.

Dear teachers
Seory English is a professional english training centre around here in Beijing. we do one on one tutoring , and right now we have about 40 teachers in our two centers . (Foreign or Chinese?)
We also have many students which range from kids to adults

The class usually lasts 100min each time,where, when and how often for a class is decided by you and your students.
Our average salary is 200RMB-250RMB per 100min with some bonus. (What kind of a bonus? Maybe a back rub?)

If you're responsible,punctual and with a native accent, then please don't hesitate to send me your resume attaching a current photo

Cassie, please don't hesitate to send us your business license, tax certificate, the name(s) of the owner(s) of the school, and the email addresses of at least 3 foreigners that are currently employed there that can vouch for the credibility of your school. This sounds a lot like the [edited] that Hampsons has been doing in the ESL market while also seriously damaging the market and the profession of teaching at the same time. At least they can multi-task.
