I have no direct knowledge of your school, one way or the other.

That being said, I have just waded -- and waded is indeed the word -- through the approximately thirty (30) posts of complaints about your school, some of which are quite dated, and some of which are quite recent. I attempted to read them in an as neutral light as possible, given what you have written here as I have no ax to grind with this school.

That being said, however, there are some issues which you might care to address here to clarify some of these issues.

(1) Does Green Acres continue to have on-going visa problems with the hiring of foreign teachers?

(2) Has Green Acres discontinued what appears to be a well-documented practice on this Board of employing foreign teachers, bringing them to Shenzhen, then firing these foreign teachers ipso facto when it is available to find a replacement who will work for less money? Please be aware that this is a particularly egregious practice.

(3) Based upon what has been written here, again of some if old and some of it more recent, has Green Acres staunched the "revolving door-come-and-go-midnight-runner" teacher employment problem that has been so commented upon here? Again, that is a serious issue.

(4) Does or does not Green Acres have its own educational facilities or does or does not Green Acres merely rent space in a local Chinese school?

(5) I have reviewed the foreign teachers currently employed by Green Acres and am truly stunned to see that most of the foreign teachers do NOT come from the approved list of Big 5 countries but rather many of them are from countries where English is truly not the national language. Is this an attempt to save money by the school?

(6) Upon reading the school's website, it is quite clear that the benefits offered by Green Acres are quite below par, particularly for Shenzhen, i.e., a very basic medical insurance scheme, an accommodation allowance which needs to be supplemented by the teacher in order to have a proper apartment, a curious array of statutory holidays some paid, and others not paid, airfare reimbursement that is far less than that offered by any other school in Shenzhen, etc., etc.

It was nice that you took the time to share your thoughts with those on this Board. It would have been better, however, instead of attempting to cover the previous teachers with opprobrium to address factually the issues, such as where and how the school has failed in the past, which is obvious by the plethora of comments on this board, and where and how the school has sought remedy and ameliorate those failings at present.
