Alcanta Language School hire foriegn teachers and replace them - without payment - whenever they find one they like better.
I was told I had a job at Alcanta, by the manager/recruiter who calls himself Steven.
I worked there for 6 weeks and one day. I worked hard and I never arrived late.
After 6 weeks, I was paid for only 4 weeks. I was told that, all of a sudden, the students had started complaining about me. I was told that it was a very large number of students who had startd complaining all of a sudden. The complaint was that I couldnt teach. I am a qualified and experienced English teacher. I hold a BSc from a British university. This simply wasnt true.
I saw the reason I had been fired, later that afternoon. A cool, charming, ggod looking young Amrican guy had been found to replace me. Steven told me I would not be paid for the two other weeks because they had had to make a great effort to find a replacement. This is also untrue. There are considerably more qualified English teachers than jobs in GZ. Especially now during the crunch. They had mearely found someone they liked better and replaced me without paying what they owed to me. They produced no evidence that anyone had complained about me, or even named anyone. Obviously, if the complaints were that I couldnt teach, these would have been made in week 1, not at the end of week 6.
I got a friend to accompany me and went back and shouted at Steven in front of the students. I was then paid for the other two weeks but not for the additional day. I still had lost my job. I had got the job when most such jobs had started and there were plenty of openings. I now had no job at a time when the openings were filled.
