I had a terrible time working for ASTON. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. I have taught at 3 schools in China over the last 5 years. I had a very positive experience teaching at other schools. My time at ASTON however was a nightmare. I think the whole organization from the inside out is a professional joke. I lost count of the contract violations. I was cheated out of contract bonuses. They tried not to pay me my monthly salary.
They will guilt you into staying. I strongly suggest that any teacher who sees the red flags early gets out. Although they think they do, they don’t own you or your passport.
I felt mislead by the school and tricked into working for them.
Overall I think ASTON is disgraceful. I write this only to warn new teachers who are looking to come to China. China is an amazing country and for me teaching at a professional school is an honor. Just stay away from ASTON!
I’m a relaxed, professional, and experienced teacher. I still feel shocked by how disgraceful and unethical ASTON school is.
