Hi Barbara, my advice to your daughter would be to look elsewhere. A school or "school" is only as good as the head of the said educational body running it. If there have been way too many complaints as there have been about this place then please don't go. "Schools" like Witty English will give you what you want to here to get you to them. Once you're their they couldn't care less about what promises they had made. Knowing that your daughter doesn't speak chinese and has no training will only embolden them to cheat her out of her salary and exploit her for more working hours.

When I was in china, I learned the hard way. I once had a guy who told me there was a western style bathroom at his school and all the necessary hardware to keep me comfortable. Well guess what when I arrived there I saw several bathrooms, not one with a western toilet. There was also no air conditioner in the room I was staying in so I couldn't get any guaranteed heating or cooling. When I asked him about this he just stayed quiet, an obvious way to be in denial about giving me what I wanted to hear. This was someone who I thought was my friend too as I had confided with him some of my earlier bad experiences and he promised me that he would in no way be like that.

I don't think your daughter would want to be stonewalled left, right, up, down, and front center by every chinese around her about the truth of what kind of an environment she is in. Avoid this "school" period unless your daughter wants a lesson in being cheated with endless denials and fake smiles. Even public schools and universities can be bad. If she absolutely has to go somewhere she can backpack and take a tour across china. Being a tourist gives you a better experience, period.
