Dear Friends,

I recently found this post about Suzhou Foreign Language School and I want to draw your kind attention to it -- it is very noteworthy in a small way for what it says :

I did add my own comments, indeed I did, but nevertheless, it is very interesting to note what the OP has written :

this "school" has become SO desperate in its hunt for foreign teachers (aka future victims of the "K" man) that they are LITERALLY hiring teachers right off the streets in Suzhou -- right of the streets!

The OP walked into the school out of interest (who could have any interest in that place) and he was offered a job on the spot --yes, on the spot -- no resume, no in-depth interview, no reference verification, no verification of diplomas -- nothing -- just on the spot, with a "pro forma" demo lesson to follow.

But, please wait -- it gets better. The contract that he was given stated if he were to be sick for three days, he would fired on the spot. Chinese labor law for foreign teachers is a 20-day grace period for illness -- so obviously SFLS is getting worse, if that is even possible.

Dear Dr. Turnoi, perhaps you might care to have a glance at that site, too.

Anyway, they MUST be truly desperate for teachers to be hiring "walk-ins"!
