Cons

Investment in teachers has dropped since the pandemic. We originally were required to have 4 Professional Development sessions with our manager, but it has been reduced to 3 Full-Time contracts are being offered less and less to prospective teachers Management are coddled greatly by upper management, but show none of the same sort of support to teacher Benefits get clawed back with every year Split shifts on weekends are long, but that's the Generally lacking in flexibility with scheduling for FT teachers

Pros

Easy to get into if you're white or Filipino. The kids are more mature and speak better English than the administration!

Cons

Lower and lower pay because of online classes, not enough TAs, too much administrative work for no pay. They should be getting a bot for all this grading.

Pros

Offer continuing education and access to teaching resources

Cons

Terrible mismanagement of the COVID crisis, enjoyed making tone-deaf corporate videos that were supposed to encourage staff. Like most language centers in Vietnam, money is king at the end of the day and supersedes everything. About every week a new policy is enacted that you will be required to follow. Enjoy being threatened with write-ups and bonus reduction! Also, the pay at Apollo is far below the standard in Hanoi. They say it’s because of the benefits, but other reputable centers also have these benefits but pay more.
