      Pros

      Motivated students with interesting jobs and a real need for English. Friendly, helpful colleagues. You learn a lot about business from your students.

      Cons

      Sadly, a clique of indifferent managers has risen to the top by virtue of staying around the longest, and not because of any leadership qualities or competence. Their primary aims seems to be protecting the status quo fiercely (what else would they do?) to the detriment of the business. Some ex-teachers say they were bullied or forced out when they queried some of management's dubious practices, the onerous travel, long hours and poor pay. Real advancement opportunities are slim and favouritism rife. Unpaid internal training is mandatory and has more to do with maintaining the corporate identity than any meaningful teacher development. Wages haven't gone up in years - at least for teachers...

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and firstly very sorry to hear that you are so unhappy working in the Cologne office, particularly as you have worked there for 3 - 4 years on a part time basis. As it sounds like you are still working there it would be helpful for management if you could discuss your concerns with them directly, especially as you feel that staff have been bullied, which is disappointing to hear. All Linguarama offices were affected by the Covid restrictions, which meant that face to face training was not possible for a period of nearly two years. This necessitated a push to ensure that all staff had the right skills to teach online, which was more difficult for some staff than others. I have shared your comments with the Cologne centre manager.

      Pros

      career growth opportunities - i started as a casual trainer, then pedagogical manager, then moved into commercial management side of the business. international - our clients come from around the world, they are all interesting business men and women from multi-nationals to SMEs, C-levels to junior employees. And the odd celebrity too. The opportunity to contribute to an evolving future - our business is continually changing, with an increased focus on technology and e-training. You can help to shape our future. Flexible / reasonable working hours plus the opportunity to work remotely Great office locations (part of a network of 17 offices in Europe) in major European cities Ongoing INSET and promoting life long learning Superb colleagues, many of whom have been working with Linguarama for a number of years

      Cons

      For London, salary is modest and could be improved
