Q: Anyone heard of ELTIC ESL? Good, Bad, or Ugly?
I am getting a lot of spam from this company to teach for them 6 hours a day five days a week for 12,000. Are they legit? I cannot find a web site for them or any other information, other that they are in Beijing and supposedly "foreign-owned and operated." Anyone out there ever hear of them or work for them? Thanks in advance for your feedback.
I have never heard of them, and if there is no web-page or information online, they are probably not legit.
However, if you are interested, you should call.
That having being said, they are in Beijing and I for one would not work there again as the on-going serious pollution is a cause for concern.
It is up to you - and good luck!
This job ?

Do you know the name of the guy who runs ELTIC ESL ? A guy named Michael Cavill ? I found (bad) references for an "ELTIC Global" school, but it was not in Beijing.
Thanks Dr. Monkey, the owner's name is indeed "Michael" but I cannot find out his last name or the Chinese name of the business. I am in no rush to get burned so I will assume it is the same guy and start checking all the blacklists another user shared with me. Do you have a link to Micahel Cavill that you can share?
DrMonkey:
I just put the name of the school in Bing, and the name popped-up, nothing more, not 1st or 2nd hand knowledge. I myself never been ESL teacher. ;)
Eltic ESL? That is a new name for them. Try Eltic Global and before that they were UKEI. Michael Cavill and they are a Hong Kong company. But office is in Shenzhen.
They bring you to China on a tourist visa and tell you it is perfectly fine to work... it is not and you will get trouble if caught. They will pay you around 4000 RMB a month, however the school will pay him maybe 10000-12000 RMB per month. That will be for 3 months then you may get 8-9000 RMB.
I worked about 2 months for Eltic and told Cavill I would leave. I received a lot of verbal threats which I ignored; that was stupid. Next day the police arrived at the school and arrested me. I spent the day in the police station and paid a nice big 'fine'.
