Dave's ESL Cafe



A word of caution to those researching jobs. Using websites like Dave's ESL Café, although do have valid job postings from reputable employers, teachers need to be careful. Mixed in with those valid job postings are disreputable employers and scams.

Why would someone do this? To post a job on his website, you must pay money. Disreputable or reputable, Dave Sperling does not distinguish between the two. Therefore, if teachers are going to apply to jobs posted on his website he or she must do further research about the company, school, or employer.

Here's a nice tidbit I found posted on TEFL Blacklist

However, the Wikipedia article has since been deleted.


When searching for a job, always proceed with caution. There are reputable job posting websites, and others not so. I would steer clear of any websites that take dramatic action to suppress any criticism. What are they hiding?
