One of the worst professional experiences of my life - ESL Teacher New York Language Center Employee Review

Pros

The pay is bad but it's even worse at some similar schools, so as these ESL schools go, NYLC is OK.

Cons

It's run like the owner's private pet project. It's completely disorganized and unprofessional in every possible way. There are no benefits and every attempt is made to avoid giving teachers enough hours to acquire benefits. There is absolutely no support given to the teachers. This is absolutely the most horrible place I have ever worked in my life and if the economy weren't so bad and jobs so hard to find, I would never work here.

Pros

You will quickly develop a lot of practical classroom skills. The students are (mostly) motivated and enthusiastic.

Cons

You may get assigned a class that basically has *no* curriculum, meaning you'll be devote many unpaid hours to creating lesson plans and quizzes.
