Proud of yourselves International House? #abandonedbyih #elt @ihstaff @IHWorld @ELGazette @TeflUnion @ELTAdvocacy @taw_sig @theeltworker
Is this #ELT? "Many teachers are neither employed nor able to sign on the dole." notesfrombelow.org/article/e…
Is this #ELT? 'I used to be proud to work at IH Barcelona. To see it come to this is shocking. It was hard to see esteemed
colleagues, some of whom are only a few years away from retirement, standing outside the school with placards.' notesfrombelow.org/article/e…
Is this #ELT? "We are currently still under contract but won't be paid. We are in legal limbo. Staff, some of whom have worked for the company for more than 30 years, are scared they won't receive their redundancy money. We feel abandoned." notesfrombelow.org/article/e…
#ELT worker 5 just out!

A teacher left a dodgy school and was told they wouldn't be paid because they'd quit - an experience all-too-familiar in the industry. One letter from the union and the money was paid in full! Cowboy bosses of the TEFL world, we're coming after you! #TEFL #union #wagetheft

This is huge. Jacinda Ardern's New Zealand is about to become the first major country to abandon growth as political priority in favour of well-being. #postgrowth nytimes.com/2019/05/22/world…
'[W]e hope to establish a TEFL Workers' Charter outlining the minimum requirements we demand from employers.'—#TEFL Workers' Union (London) notesfrombelow.org/article/e…
'[I]t soon became apparent that this place was run as little more than a huge scam.' Why is this OK in today's #TEFL / #ELT industry?notesfrombelow.org/article/e…
