It's the Webolization of the industry in China.

Web International burst onto the scene here with a management concept that is highly profitable and, at least in many of its centers, not especially friendly or beneficial to the teachers. Or, for that matter, the students.

Low salary/hour ratios, minimal benefits, sub-market part time rates, and more are among their many hallmarks.

Because the Web model is so profitable for big important school owner mans, it's being copied like crazy all over the country...just as the Web model itself was largely lifted from earlier, less aggressive chains. And it's taking a lot of the attraction of working here right down the toilet.
