	Level Up, Yes or No?
		I believe that any high school student taking Nova lessons for three years would end up with better English skills than a student who went through the public school's English curriculum, even when aided by a JET teacher.
		Except for this strict enforcement of rules, Nova's working conditions always seemed fine to me. I taught at half a dozen different schools during my time at the company, and the classrooms were invariably clean and comfortable, with air conditioning cranking in the summer and plenty of toasty heat in the winter.
		Remember that virtually all Nova teachers are foreigners, with family, friends, and other roots pulling them away from Japan.

	Teach.3Yen.com - Teach English in Japan - Being an english teacher in Japan
		The interview itself was subtlely off-putting, and the corporate nature of NOVA began to become apparent as the interviewer rapid fired through the lightning round and refused to move on until she had something to fill the space on her sheet for the semi-unanswerable questions.
		NOVA seems to be one of the very few eikaiwa that allow foreigners to work part-time but this is only available for a few countries with the appropriate visa (mainly Australia and New Zealand).
		NOVA in particular is said to be under recruitment quotas so I’m told the interviews are more or less just to check that you don’t dribble when you talk or have Tourette’s Syndrome.

	I'm Still in Japan: eikaiwa
		Eikaiwa is literally "English Conversation" but has also come to refer to the innumerable schools that teach English in Japan.
		Anyway, as the biggest eikaiwa around, Nova sets the standard for English schools here, and, with a few exceptions, until now I had only heard complaints about eikaiwa work.
		The school is a small operation run by two nice old Japanese women who had taught pre-school and kindergarten for years before opening their own eikaiwa.

	Welcome to English School Watch Organization
		I´m seriously considering teaching English in Japan and I was just looking to get some feedback/advice about which program is the best (and why) out of Geos, Nova and Aeon.
		Nova totally frowns on this, it´s against their policy and they will fire you if you see your students outside of school.
		Disturbingly, Dave´s ELS Cafe is in the pocket of some eikaiwa schools, such as AEON.

	Advice on Eikaiwa - Japan Forum
		Also search Google Groups for the newsgroup: fj.life.in-japan the guys and girl in there (including myself) have also waxed lyrical about the English chain schools to great length since about 1997.
		If anyone has anything great to say about AEON, GEOS, or Nova (or one I haven't heard of) I'd love to hear it.
		Non-chain school related topics such as 'JET' returns about 600 hits and 'teaching' gets you a whooping 1600 hits.

	Job Discussion Forums :: View topic - FAQ about teaching in Japan, Part 2
		Japan's largest "eikaiwa" chain, Nova, is already being probed by the Social Insurance Agency and could see itself slapped with a multibillion-yen bill for missed payments.
		NOVA, AEON, GEOS, ECC, the JET program, Language House, James English School and Westgate Corporation recruit teachers overseas.
		For eikaiwa teachers, however, that figure rises to between 96 and 97 percent, making it possible for most to get an almost full refund of their pension premiums.

	General Union, Japan. Workers' Compensation
		An English teacher at NOVA came to the General Union after falling and breaking her arm at the school where she worked.
		According to the Japan Civil Liberties Union, most of these are not reported, and the workers involved receive little or no compensation.
		A: Because they don't want to pay the insurance premiums; or they don't know the law; or they are employing undocumented workers; or (in the case of subcontractor companies and "brokers") they fear that investigations into work accidents could damage their relationships with client companies.
