I was offered a teaching job in Shanghai through the International Teaching Advantage organization. At first, I did have my doubts. But I have to say I was very pleased with the overall quality of professionalism Keith Jordan provided me in the beginning stages of this process.

I am going on my third year in China, and will admit this is the best decision I have ever made. I strongly recommend ITA to anyone living in the United States.

I have read a majority of this thread and would like to add my two cents.

One, it is easy to get a job in China if you are living in China. It is, however, much harder when one lives elsewhere. Two, I know many people currently teaching in China that have paid much more than what ITA is charging to work in China. Three, the simple fact you don't have to pay ITA anything until a contract is signed is a huge plus. This gives the teacher an opportunity to do homework on the school and city. Finally, this is to Turnoi ... if you have a personal problem with ITA, you need to keep it to yourself. Stop slandering this company and discouraging people from pursing a wonderful opportunity. What you are doing is petty and childish. You need to grow up and act like an adult. I certainly hope you are not teaching anywhere because you would be a horrible example for students to look up to. Stop these personal attacks and move on with your life.
