Schools in Moscow

I have read some reviews about the British International School and Anglo American School in Moscow. However, there are two others advertising: the English International School and the International School of Moscow.

Can anyone share information about these two, e.g are they good to work for, and anything else that may be helpful to me in applying for a position at either one.

Many thanks
TS

Have you tried searching the TES forum? There is often chatter about Moscow.

I have heard that there are management problems at EIS. There is also a rumour that there are financial issues. I will try to confirm this, at this point it is just gossip.

Dear T Sawyer

The news on English International is (I dont teach there myself)

:( most of the existing staff are leaving at the end of the school year because of unhappiness with management

:( the resources are poor

:) salaries are paid on time

:( many of the children have problems - either learning or behavioral. They take the kids none of the other schools want.

I hope this is helpful to you.
If you have specific questions, write them on this forum and I can ask my friend.

Best wishes
Deb
