WARNING! Expertise Education Company LTD is heavily recruiting teachers for the summer and fall. Beware of this company. Don't fall for the foreign staff who offer to answer your questions. They get paid extra to write canned responses to interested applicants and leave positive reviews on websites like the Beijinger and CityWeekend. I came over with 67 teachers. More than half have left. I am currently in a contract with Expertise so I cannot go into the specifics of their wrongs against me and their other teachers. Expertise Education is [edited], mishandles your important documents (visas, police registration, invitation letters, etc), and will not place you in quality schools or housing. Stay away from this agency despite their promises of good housing (unless you want your shower held together with buckets and duct tape, holes in the walls, pest infestations, a never ending string of roommates that they can't find apartments for etc), quick visas (unless you don't mind taking a trip to Hong Kong or Mongolia on a 2 day notice), and stable, full time positions close to your apartment (unless you like living an hour away from the city or an hour away from your school). All new contracts with Expertise have a "severance fee" of 1,000 yuan. Ask yourself why an agency would need such a strong safeguard against unhappy teachers leaving...
