Re: Warning - Beijing WiseWay Consulting is China study abroad scam
2022 is almost over and this Russian is now peddling "guaranteed scholarships", Fortune 500 internships, and illegal visas and black market job placements. In other words, if you want to get screwed faster than you can fart, go see Yuri.

Re: China Government Bans Foreign Teachers & Curriculum
As the salaries start falling the mass exodus has begun in China. Most of my colleagues have already found jobs in Korea, Argentina, and Dubai because of this China ban. The supply of TEFL teachers now far exceeds the demand folks.

Re: Scam Alert: Korean Employer Blacklist For foreign TEFL Teachers
Thanks for the post. The CTA and ETA endorsed this Korean Blacklist site as accurate and current. And now that China has banned foreign teachers in China, about 30,000 expats will soon be arriving in Korea competing for a much smaller selection of teaching jobs.

Re: This is the most clever and costly TEFL Job Scam ever. It steals up to 45% of teacher salaries!
I admit, I never doubted that the taxes being taken out of my pay were real. I just visited my last employer, showed her this post and asked for copies of my tax receipts or I was going to visit the tax bureau on Monday for my copies. She didn't say anything but she asked me to go with her to ICBC b...

Yes apparently so according to other comments made at other threads about ESLinsider here at TEFL net and at https://reddit.com/r/TEFLscams and also AbroadReviews.com and https://ChinaScamPatrol.wordpress.com. Personally, I take his comments with a grain of salt.

Re: Realistic Chinese TEFL Salaries
I think you should emphasize that if teachers use a recruiter, visa agent, or job agent to get a job in China, you will reduce these salaries by 40%.
