Unfortunately, I spent little time teaching in Nilufer, because of my family issue but my experience with Mr. Amagan and Oxford as Academy was great.

From the moment I came to Bursa, he waited for me with his assistant, took me to the hotel and next day to school which was fantastic, with great and helpful colleagues, friendly children. I got my salary a day before I was supposed to, Mr. Armagan and his assistant were at my disposal all the time for any question or problem.

I believe that all these mean comments come from mean people from other competitor language schools.

The Person Jen.H ,,I know who he is,, as you know there are some people who are blaming always because they were told that we wouldnt continue work with them since they were not successful and problematic people but whne you quit working with them, they always try to take revenge from you and tell lies about the company , as he is doing now. First of all ı must say that we have no relation with other comapnies like the same name Oxford,,we are Oxford as Academy not language center etc. And we are only located in Bursa but our teachers work in our schools in Istanbul-Izmir-Antalya . but Not in Adana and We have been working with our teachers happily for a long time,,My advise is not to believe these liar people who think small and try to get their revenge of losing their job just because of not being a successfull teacher,, You cannot make everybody happy in this world,,but we know ourselves and our teachers know us also,, My advice for you , if you want to get any idea about me and my company , please talk to my 54 current teachers , most of them have already decided to continue working with me next year too,,, you can get the best ideas from our current teachers ,,,if you email me then I can give you all of them , not some of them,,all of them email and you can contact them and learn that we are the only and only company in Turkey paying on time and well and one nonsense sentence from his lies, he mentions about resident permits etc. You can learn from my teachers that everybody has worked legally with their work permit with us. I dont know what kind of things they are gaining by being a bad intension person but God knows and see everything. You can contact my teachers ,, I just wanted to answer this just because ı couldnt stand these lies ,, And also please before contacting the real persons , do not believe these small minded liar people...No need to say extra word.. my email is turuncum_olcturkey@hotmail.com M.Armagan Burcu ( I dont use nicknames since we are real people not fakes or the people who are hiding themselves behind their big lies.. Good Day to everybody..

While Oxford as Academy, Bursa, Turkey is not a complete scam and that they actually send their teachers to work in schools, they lie to their teachers about being able to work legally in the country in order to get the teachers there, only to put them at a disadvantaged position when problems arise.

The company would tell potential teachers that they would receive a residency permit which would allow them to work. That's a lie. Residency permits DO NOT allow foreigners to work in Turkey. You need a separate work permit.

One reason the company lies is so they can save money while still getting teachers to go work for them. Teachers will only realize that they have been tricked if one of the following situation arises: 1. When they read the Turkish words in their residency permit, clearly stating that the holder is not permitted to work. 2. When a Turkish friend or colleague inform them that. 3. When they go to the police for help and get told/caught by the police.

Some other problems with this agency is that they put money over their teachers' well-being and interests.

They pay lower than average wage and never on time (you can get much higher wage and better benefits with many other companies). Their apartments are extremely small and they never fix your apartment when there is a problem.

Additionally, if you ever quit work with Oxford as Academy, they will threaten you for money (I have proof if you'd like me to show you and I have no reason to slander this company). They will say that they have connection with the police and they are going to catch you unless you pay them a lot of money. They will also turn you out of your apartment, cut off your phone and internet, and steal your things. And you will have no one to turn to because you are an illegal worker.

Do not work for Oxford as Academy. They are not honest people.

The one who told me these unrealthings about me and the company is having pyscoligical problems. Probably he or she is the one who didnt work with me or a person from another company who is trying to make me down with these false comments or it can be a person whom we quitted working because of his or her unsatisfactory working.
I am the only company in Turkey paying the salaries ON TIME and protecting the teachers rights even though for unsuccessful teachers.
Thats all.
I am answering this ridicilous comment only because of let the people know that if anyone wants to learn real something about me and my company then please tell me so that ı can give you my current teachers emails who have been working with me more than one year. If I were a person and a company like that, why foreign teachers renew their contract with me. We never work without work permit and we provide work permit to our teachers to work legally.

If anyone wants to contact me directly, this is my email address turuncum_olcturkey@hotmail.com

These coward and liar people are not brave people since they dont give their real names or emails. Everybody can write something for another with nick names.

The teachers who work properly and successfully with us are always happy with us.

M.Armagan Burcu
