In response to Re: GLV Zhuhai, China - ESL school review (wondering)

Cant you just find another place to argue about this stuff?

I wanted to say:

GLV is the most or one of the most expensive schools in China, thats right. But it has a great advantage for the students.
When I was a student there, last year summer, the majority were University students from rich families, who are going to send their child abroad. They all know that this is one of their last chances to learn english properly before they have to face the real english world.
So the most of them were hard working adults! They werent kids, who had been forced by their parents to attend an school during summer vacation.
In my opinion, perhaps they are exaggerating iwith this "family" stuff. But truth is, they had a nice environment! It seemed like everybody is having fun being there!

We did have different ribbons for the name tag. When you start a session, you will get a green ribbon to show other teachers and students that you are a newcomer. After 2 weeks you will change it into a yellow one, because now you are used to everything.
Teachers have blue ribbons and students who only attend evening programs have red ribbons.
There is NO colour difference between rich or poor students!

We had a nice and friendly environment, everybody was serious about studying and they werent childish. The students were mature and they helped each other and had fun together. Even one lunch with your morning teacher outside of glv is included.

Why do so many teachers stay in GLV, although they earn less money than teachers in beijing or shanghai...etc.?
They like the school, the people there and Zhuhai!
It is really not difficult to find a job in China right now, if you are an english teacher, perhaps native speaker!
And for sure, their salary is higher than 4500RMB !!

I stayed there for 6 weeks and I made a lot of great memories, further you should know that I am not a typical chinese student, who is writing this stuff, I was born in Europe and I am still living in Europe.
I was really surprised, because new oriental school, which I attended some years ago for four weeks, was not very effective. Or it was the real opposite of GLV.

I had fun, it was a nice time being there and I love Zhuhai!! Its a great place, not so big and exhausting like beijing or shanghai etc.

best wishes
