I know English First in Moscow, and I know Ivor G[edited] too. He is a real "company" guy, a real smooth operator, and they will rip you off sooner look at you. They have ripped may people off. They are an over priced franchise. They do not offer the highest salary in Moscow, in fact they are the lowest. The accommodation isn't free, and you will pay out almost 1/2 your salary on accommodation. I have looked again at their packages, past and present, and its all a pack of lies. They used to have their office located at the Airport, but due to loss of contracts they have re-located. They have a very high turn over of staff. You are better off seeking a contract with either Language Link or one of the other well known schools. English First is the worst. I know Ivor G[edited] too, he has risen very quickly from a plain ordinary teacher to the upper echelons of grovelling weasel. The guy is a shark, he will short change you. Best advice, give EF a body swerve.
