Good intro to ESL teaching - English Teacher Elite Language Institute Employee Review

Casual dress, adult students, and great coworkers mean that I go home happy at the end of the day, even when I'm exhausted. This school is undergoing a lot of positive changes right now and it is exciting to be a part of them.

Teachers are hired as contractors with no benefits, and the pay starts kind of low. However, raises are common, and come in $1.00/hour increments.

1. Very little pressure or supervision if you are a good teacher and popular with students. 2. Evening classes for non-morning people like myself.

1. Salary isn't the worst but not the greatest either. I have worked here for a number of years but they have only given me two insignificant raises that barely matched inflation (typical of Taiwan). 2. Terrible textbooks, but I have also been given the freedom to prepare my own materials but that takes up time which is unpaid.
