The Globalization of English as a Second Language (ESL) schools has led to a high demand for teachers to serve different levels of students. The reviews provide a comprehensive analysis of the ESL instructor job. For one, teaching at the school provides a good experience as it is a welcoming environment with a diverse student population from around the world. Nonetheless, the materials and tools provided for teacher support is not clear in the action. Due to this, there is a high learning curve on the job. The students also have a different level of proficiency in English, which makes it difficult for teachers to manage their classes. This problem is compounded by the excessive hours, reports to write, and very little support from administration and the lower pay is not commensurate with the effort. The instructor considers this as a good foundation as it sharpens the teacher's teaching skills to navigate diverse conditions. A positive review says that the school provides international employees with many opportunities for growth. Nevertheless, most teachers shared negative experiences in the company.
