The lessons were great.
Everything about the company and how they treated teachers.
Please treat your teachers better.
There is a depressing atmosphere in the school due to low pay, lack of support, and being treated like an object rather than a human being.
Rather than giving you 4 lessons in one place, they will give you 4 lessons in completely different areas in order for you to gain "travel" hours as well as teaching hours. This means you could be out of the house for 12+ hours but only actually teaching for 6 hours. Oh, and you won't be allowed a break. Unless of course you're ill, in which case they will begrudgingly give you one.
They do not care if you have to leave extremely early in the morning or travel back very late at night in the middle of absolutely nowhere when it's pitch black.
You are forced to do training sessions on Fridays at 4pm.
I often asked for more responsibilities but was never given any.
Sometimes workshops are offered where you can work on materials alongside other teachers.
Mircromanagement, invasion of privacy (I was ill & needed regular medical appointments and asked to disclose what was wrong with me), lack of support, only given negative feedback, positive feedback turned around and made negative.. I could go on..
Borderline illegal. No proper breaks (train journeys between lessons do NOT count), extremely low pay (you can get more working at McDonalds), and minimum holiday allowance. No raises. Older colleagues have slightly better conditions in their contracts.
Pay your teachers a proper wage.
A male colleague with the exact same experience and qualifications as me was given a raise, but I was not. I had received a lot of positive feedback and worked extremely hard to give good lessons so was very, very disappointed and unmotivated after this.
The students were all very nice and classes were great.
The center manager and colleagues.
Teaching a wide variety of students from many interesting backgrounds.
Even with a masters in teaching adults, consistently 'excellent' feedback, and years of experience, the salary for a 40 hour contract teacher is no more than what a McDonald's worker gets(I wish I was exaggerating). It's a shame to have to leave a company purely for this reason.
Pay your teachers a living salary- then the good ones won't leave.
Create a better system for your course programmes, if you've been struggling for years to get teachers to create course programmes that are up to Linguarama's standards, maybe ask yourself if it's not time to change something on YOUR side- the definition of madness is doing the same thing expecting different results.
Professional, friendly, a pleasure to work with my direct team
Financial manager at the company is shortsighted. Due to low pay, they have created an atmosphere where even the most dedicated teachers loose motivation and eventually leave.
I don't know about the other schools but my direct manager is fantastic ..
But also underpaid, like everyone at the company.
