Bottom line is this, training centers exist to make money. They will squeeze everything they can out of you to make a little bit more money. When you burn out, you are easily replaceable. But, Web is one of the better places to work because you are actually TEACHING, unlike most schools where you just make conversation to entertain the students
Yes, well, my main consideration is not how good it is for the students, it's how they'd treat me if I came half way around the globe to work for them. Can you elaborate please, what do you mean by "you are actually TEACHING, unlike most schools where you just make conversation to entertain the students?" because some would say that it's actually the job of the oral English FT to make conversation. Most students are actually pleased only if you give them sweets, play Mr Bean, and allow the little [edited] to make as much noise as their hearts content. To please them with conversation doesn't seem that bad to me. Remember FT's are generally not proper teachers and are generally employed to teach oral and converse, and not to discuss Shakespeare and anguish over his grammar. Real English teaching requires great emphasis on grammar, you can't get away from it.
