My experience at this International school has been incredibly frustrating , there are numerous issues that make it impossible to recommend this place to anyone . The most troubling issue has been the lack of collaboration between teachers , there a sense of competition and inflated ego that only serve to create a divisive and unproductive atmosphere . A real lack of support from management , more focused on placing blame rather than addressing concerns. The company culture is toxic as there is a troubling dynamic where long standing teachers pressure newcomers to resign , creating a very unwelcoming and hostile environment . Additionally the work load is overwhelming with a constant burden of online assignments and work outside of regular hours . The salary is shockingly low for the amount of work expected and there are no real opportunities for advancement or promotions . Job security is practically nonexistent and professional development is very low . The school doesn't have enough classrooms to accommodate the number of students . Teachers supposed to be at the service of both students and parents , but there is no recognition or support in return . This creates a sense of being undervalued and overworked . All in all , the lack of support , the poor pay and unhealthy work environment make the place difficult to recommend. The management needs to drastically improve in every area , especially when it comes to treating new teachers with the respect they deserve and take time to listen to them instead of blaming ....Read More

Job security is highly unstable in this school. A group of long standing members in this school will decide who stays and who leaves the school. These individuals often act unfairly, they are very hostile towards some of the staffs and if they want someone out, they persist until they succeed. It is an easy process for them. These members try their best to mislead the management by spreading false information. They make up stories, twist facts, and exaggerate situations to benefit themselves. This creates a negative work environment where trust is lost. The management, instead of making independent decisions, tends to side with them without much thought. The management focuses on gladdening these people. There is a lack of ethics in their approach. JOB SECURITY HERE IS EXTREMELY UNCERTAIN. The management keep on trying with new candidates. Some of the teachers, especially the new ones are being treated very badly. It feels unfair and disheartening to watch hardworking educators go through difficult situations due to the ego of that group of people....Read More
