I m currently in my second term working with Simply English and it s been an overall enjoyable experience. The job can be demanding at times, but it s quite rewarding when all s said and done.
The management and office staff are all wonderful to work with -- they re easy-going, personable, and always willing to help with whatever you may need as both a teacher and as a foreigner living in Moscow. The company holds true to all that the ads promise and really go out of their way to make their teachers feel comfortable and at home in Moscow.
About the job -- no two teachers will have the same schedule, and lessons can be scheduled all over the city which will mean lots of time commuting. Lessons can also be scheduled for a wide range of students in a wide range of settings; meaning toddlers to adults, and full classes in schools to 1-on-1 lessons in students homes, and everything between. It requires a lot of flexibility on the part of the teacher, but it also offers an opportunity for the teacher to develop several facets of his/her teaching style and to gain valuable teaching experience in many different areas.
Teachers schedules are always apt to change (due to cancellations, changes in school schedules, new students, etc.), but regardless of cancellations/changes, salaries remain consistent. There are also occasional offers to work overtime to earn additional income.
The city itself is phenomenal, and while company apartments may not be in the city center, they are all at least close to a metro station which can quickly take you to the center.
In short, Simply English holds true to all its claims and makes its teachers feel welcome. The job offers both a great way to grow into a multi-faceted teacher and a great introduction to life in Russia.
