This letter is for the author of the above email inquiring about "The China Teaching Network". You asked if they are any good.....well you can decide after reading my story. I contacted them and asked them to please help me find a legit job. I was told by them that they had the perfect school and yes it was legal. I packed up my stuff and travelled to the new school. Once I got there, things were not how they were promised and the school also took my passport and instead of putting in a Z visa they gave me an F visa. I tried to contact them numerous times but they were always to busy to speak to me. However they were not to busy to phone the school that they had placed me in to make sure that they got their 4000RMB fee!! I almost got deported because of them and I sorted out the problem myself by finding a better and legal school on my own. These people do not care about you and they will put you in bad situations if it means that they are making money. My advice is to STAY AWAY from them!!! There is other horror stories on many ESL sites about these people. I only wish I had done my homework a little better. Good luck with your job search.
