Stella - 2009-01-29

I'm a former EFL teacher currently applying for jobs, but I have a dilemma. My previous experience comes from a job where I did not finish the contract (not my choice). If it makes a difference, the school I was at was one of those notorious schools that have numerous blacklists against it. I need some advice: should I list the job on my resume and take advantage of having at least some experience, and hope the employers will be understanding? Or should I just omit it altogether (and represent myself as unexperienced teacher)? It's a tricky one; my leaving early is completely understood by any reasonable person, but I worry that an unfulfilled contract (for ANY reason) would be a red flag that would outweigh anything else.
