WORKING FOR NOVA

Well, I must say that it feels great to have completed my last working day at Nova.
It was quite possibly the most bogus organization I have ever worked for.

What is so bogus about Nova? Well, let's look at a few things.
In fairness though, remember that many of the following
observations apply to the entire "English Conversation School"
industry in Japan equally.
There are no professional qualifications required to be a teacher.
Nova provides three days of "training" for all new teachers.
Want to teach the outrageously overpriced children's lessons?
Just another 45 minutes of training.

Once they get the students' money, they don't really give a damn
whether they ever learn to speak English well or not.
They follow P.T. Barnum's maxim about their being a sucker born every minute.
Hardly any of the staff can speak English well and almost NONE of them study at Nova.
Then in their sales talk they tell people how wonderful Nova is and how much they can
improve their English at Nova.
How in hell would they know?
Would you eat lunch at a restaurant where the people who
worked there always brought their lunch? I think not.
What is good about Nova?
The commercials are EXCELLENT!!
They attract people like you wouldn't believe.
In my school, we have people who drive in from two or three towns away. Why?
Because they were hooked by the commercials.
They have English schools right in their own towns, yet they drive an hour
to study at Nova. All this when Nova is no better or worse than any of
the other schools out there.
All the schools now have "opinion boxes" at the front desk so that students
can confidentially submit their opinions and complaints about the school.
According to what is written on the box, the box is emptied once a month and
the contents sent directly to some bigwigs at the head office.
Supposedly the staff never sees them. That the staff never sees them is true anyway.
How is that? Because the boxes are never emptied!!!
I know for a fact that as I write this (June 15, 1997) there is a message in the
Kiryu Nova box which was put there in February.
I have mentioned this numerous times and been brushed off each time.
