Hello Genna

Mostly, there are bad comments about ALV taiwan,

Bad thing-

1. First of all when you arrive in taiwan you would be put in a hotel in Taoyaun which its not that good and its a 3 star but run down its a business hotel

2. Area you will be put at sometimes the environment is not that good at all and not clean as always

3. You are mostly playing games with the students and babysitting them for the whole day all you would be teaching is 2 ESL classes for children that are age 8 years and older but most of the taiwaneese Children don't Understand

4. Teachers have to perform at the end of the ceremony which its a problem for most teachers

5. Favoritism is a terrible thing at this camp because most camp directors have favoritism with some of the local native teachers over others

6. The materials for the books are copies from other ESL companies

7. Meals are not good at this camp.. for breakfast you would only get a coffee and a sandwich and for lunch its mostly a take out meal and its paid for by ALV but your dinner is not

8. You will not know what classes you would be teaching until the last minute and handling the students will be a challenge

9. Its Illegal to work in Taiwan under a tourist visa for other citizens that comes from other countries, usually at this camp the camp owner wants to keep most of this hush hush because its all about the owner making the money at the expense of others.. If you get caught working on a tourist visa there is jail time and a huge fine and its already happend at our last camp in 2016 after the camp ended immigration found out and he was deported and he can never come back to taiwan

Good thing-

1. They give you an advance but only $120NTD per day for your meals and laundry
2. You will get paid your salary at the end but remember what you see in the add you donot get all of that separate you get that all together and take that and divide by how many weeks is your contract

There is more but ill tell u next time
