Good overall work environment

Indeed Featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
The students were great. Pay could have been better and tracking hours was annoying. Management was in the process of learning how to manage effectively.

Challenging students

What's most challenging is working is Arabic students. You'd be working with military Arabic men. This group of students tend to be very loud, very controlling toward the teachers. Their behavior is disrespectful. A teacher can be highly stressed due to this kind of students. My experience has taught me a lot. TLC has Saudi Arabian students that come on a yearly basis. The school has mostly over 80% of Arabic military men. If you are a strong will teacher then you might handle this group of students.

Pros

No work on Fridays

Cons

Dealing with Arabian students

Administration and students great to work with

The Language Company has very clear, written policies and the director is extremely helpful. The teachers there are also friendly and helpful. The students are varied and interesting.

Flexible start/end times with little educational integrity

This is a for-profit company, which means that the customer is always right and thusly passes each level regardless of aptitude. My employment ended due to lack of students after 2 years. I don't even know if this place is open anymore.

Overall a good place to work.

Small classes allowing instructors to give more attention to students and their progress. Teachers are collaborative, they work together and help each other when needed. Director and assistant director are very helpful.

Great Working Environment

The team at The Language Company was extremely supportive and helpful with any questions one might have. My only wish is that the account managers would be more available in the morning to help with issues with morning classes. The most enjoyable part of the job is definitely seeing the improvement that the students make in their English. One complaint that I had, but it was fully disclosed by the company was that there was no travel stipend. You would spend a lot of time on public transportation and that adds up when you have low pay.
