Yes you hit part of the problem right on the head Dying Young. Aston English Schools do that trick with their students too. If a student does not do well so what, send the student on to the next level regardless what the teacher writes in the students passport.

Also English First Head Office of selling franchises and letting the owners run amuck with their treatment of their foreign teachers is finally coming back to bite them in the ass. EF are well known for their terrible contract hours, poor pay, extra non paid time during the summer and winter holidays and terrible treatment towards their foreign teachers. And here they are expanding big time and cannot get enough teachers due to how they the head office and their franchises conduct themselves.

There is a god!!!
