Corrupted education company

Behind the Vietnamese Edugo education company stands a group of various foreign interest groups such as, the Australian Software development compan, EC Group, the Newtimes cooperation with investors from Taiwan,China and West Africa or the Indian Recruitment Agency HR Global. These multinational groups are not interested to teach Vietnamese people German language but to squeeze every penny out of the pocket of the Vietnamese parents who desperately wish a better life for their children.

But fact is that the company has a record of discriminating and bullying behaviour towards native experienced teachers, particularly female native teachers who get bullied until they leave. The company hires through their own recruitment agency Prosworks unprofessional,non-experienced male teachers who obey and follow the companies instructions to teach rubbish German language with rubbish teaching materials full of grammar and spelling mistakes. If you push 15 times a day the audio button and don't teach proper German language, the company hires you and leaves you alone. They check if you follwow their instructions by sending teachers into your class to check on you.
But that is not enough. The company makes false promises to hire you but forces you to teach illegally without employment contract or work permit. If you refuse to work illegally they make you leave without payment. And Edugo is also connected to other languages centers. They bad mouth you all over the place,so you won't ever get another teaching job in Vietnam. Edugo is also connected to the EIV group,EI Group or Vinhome City group. Involved in this corruption is also the ULIS who provides the Vietnamese German teachers for such centers and the Goethe Institute. The Goethe Institute hands out fake B1 certificates which reflects not the language level of the student but the money the parents spent on classes. The students fly with the fake B1 certificate to Germany and get rejected by employers of their low German language skills
Also the school facilities specially in the bathrooms are disgraceful without washing soap or toilet paper on all school floors. Instead, the company spents every monrh huge amount of money for themselves and for marketing events which is just for the staff. All the money goes to a useless marketing department who posts daily about 50 fake employment posts without actually hiring teachers.

There is a lot of illegal activity in this company such as hiring non-qualified  teachers as training managers or issuing teacher contracts under a 5 Million salary to avoid tax payment while the salary is around 50-60 Million monthly. Native speakers are of course paid less than Vietnamese teachers and are also forced into part-time positions to avoid bnefits and legal employment.
And the students learn absolutely nothing.
A language test by a native teacher showed disastrous results with 60 % passing rate for by the best students. To cover the results ,the managing department conducted own language tests two days later. And the language tests of the company showed suprisingly different results. Students with good results in the language test of the native teacher received suddenly bad marks in the company's conducted tests. Students with good German language skills who also speak English fail the Edugo speaking test,so the student has to repeat the class and pay more. The managing department bad mouths the student as lazy. But the offer of native teachers to provide extra classes in order to avoid repeating whole classes has been rejected. This has all nothing to do with education. It's milking hard working people like milk cows and transfer all the money from Vietnamese people to foreign investors. Disgraceful. And Shameful to all those participating in this corruption.
