Pros

***AWARDED BEST CHALLENGER SCHOOL REVIEW/ MOST ACCURATE. If you need a J-O-B (English as 1st Language, not necessary) then this PLACE is for you! Don't want freedom of thought and have no ability to think for yourself? PERFECT! No teaching experience and love to be ridiculed while ON THE CLOCK? Step Right Up! Love being managed by members of the Baker Cult? APPLY TODAY! Love doing the Roman salute while clicking heels together like Dorothy to a picture of a business woman? Seig Heil!

Cons

Curriculum is from 1864. That is ONE YEAR before the Civil War ended. 102 Fever!? Better show up or be written up. I guess the bleak hospital-esque setting makes them think that they qualify as a medical institution? Everything they tell you in the interview is a LIE. Don't worry - you will be back here in 6 months and you will say, "Wow, you were right." I was coached to help the kids cheat on CATs. Seriously, I will swear on a bible in court on that ONE! ... or the Book of Mormon if that is preferred .. and it is. DO NOT try to CHANGE anything. DO NOT be Creative or give any ideas that you think will improve anything. THEY DO NOT CARE.
