Many weeks ago I had an interview with Amanda Chen on Skype. I am from the USA and I am a licensed American teacher K6 - K12. I have also had some initial contact with a woman named Joy Yu, both of which are employed as human resource agents or clerks with the Beijing Huijia Private School or the Huijia Group of scam artists. I found my conversation with Amanda Chen to be highly circumspect on numerous questions as she did not look at the camera, and she kept looking over to her right side and anytime someone came within the camera range she bent downwards as if she were trying to hide, or not be heard during her conversations with me. Her eyes kept darting around and looking up and toward her right side as if someone was standing near her or something. When I asked about an apartment or a room she contradicted herself and her stories did not match what Joy Yu told me on at least 7 major items to include: Teaching hours, wages, housing, contract duration, subjects I would teach, an exact school on site where I would be assigned, curriculum, and contacting other teachers for references. She changed her story on salary 3 times over a few days and during the Skype discussion she was obviously lying right to my face on cam. I was extremely lucky that through some level of pre-texting I was able to call the school and speak with a teacher there who told me not to take any job and not to believe anything that anyone at the HR office told me. She subsequently sent me an email and she gave me the low down on the reality of life at the Beijing Huijia Private School and it once I read her email the game was over for Amanda Chen and Joy Yu and their obviously outrageous lies. I feel sorry for people that need to lie like they do in order to hire teachers. But I am not a person to take lightly the job of teaching and when I sign a contract it had better be based on 100% informed decision making and certainly so in a country such as China. I also emailed a few other actual international schools and not the pretend Beijing Huijia Private School and asked questions just like I did when I interviewed with the Beijing Huijia Private School. All of them gave me answers while the liars at Huijia could not even come up with a firm wage to pay me. I am seriously thankful for this Web site and this forum. I am equally thankful that I did not send any of my personal documents to those two criminal con artists because I would seriously wonder what they would do with them. This Web site has most likely saved thousands of teachers from being victims and in this case, this Web site saved me from being a victim of the Beijing Huijia Private School and for that I say thank God! Do not accept anything that the Beijing Huijia Private School staff try and tell you concerning the "standard package". There is no such thing. The only thing that may be "standard" about the Beijing Huijia Private School is misrepresentation, lies, and more lies.

Let me say again, THANK YOU to the owner of this Web site for safeguarding FT's because it is people like you that help to expose the fraud, scandal, and the dirt that so many of these badly run chop shops like the Beijing Huijia Private School try and pull on good-hearted FT's that are just trying to earn a living honestly. Those people at the Beijing Huijia Private School should be ashamed of themselves.
