Ok,NOVA was a wash (long story), so where else can I go ?
I've have tried the following this week :GEOS,AEON , AND JET and so far so good. Are ther any other "good" english schools out there, that I have not stated ? ( anywhere in asia.)

Berlitz, Gaba and ECC

But the first two are REALLY bad

What happened with NOIVA?

Long story. They screwed up my interview date, thus I showed up for the wrong day (the 21, rather then the 22) and they interviewed me for part time rather then fulltime, without telling me. Thus I looked like an *** for that one, and when the next day came around, I was not there for the real interview. I found this out a day later, when I got back home. Apparently, there were two "snakeskins" up for interviews, and they gave me his date.
Oh well ,thats my story. It's will be kais will if iI get a real job, so I guess I'll keep on trying.
ps what was wrong with the first 2 schools ?

The same thing that's wrong with Nova. They're all McEnglish mills. They exist for the sole purpose of separating the "students" from their money and impart practically no English ability to any of their students. The students who do well are ones who do so due to the work they put in which is not related to what they learn at McEnglish, as a general thing. You'll have more than ample opportunity to observe the faults of McEnglish firsthand once you work for one. Anyone with an ounce of perspicacity and integrity will soon develop a sort of kindred bond with the students since you will be able to see how both you and they are getting shafted by the "school".
