Beware of Nexus Language school.
by: James browman

I live and love it here in Cuenca.Today however I observed in person how some individuals such as the owner of the Nexus school thinks of Gringos. I have an Ecuadorian friend whom only speaks spanish and wanted to learn English.The school requires that a placement test be taken first which my friend took showing that she did not speak english. They put her in a class with an teacher who only spoke English. After one week and seeing my friend frustrated, I went to the school and met the owner. I explained to the owner that my friend needed a class with a bilingual teacher to which she became upset at me questioning their teaching methods.She stood up and said and I quote"All you gringos are alike. You come here and think you are better then us."

Secure Internet access
by: Tom

I have an opportunity to do some consulting work here in Cuenca with a US based company through their computer internet system. They use an access security system based on RSA SecurID which is a coordination of time between a remote fob and the home computer system.
My question is, has anyone used this or a similar system from Cuenca and if so what type of internet system did you use, ETPA, TV Cable or something else.

Thanks for any information you might have available.

Beware of local realtors
by: Anonymous

Before you choose a local to rent you an apartment ask lots of questions. everyone here is now a realtor and wants your money. make sure you get a lease in English and spanish and NEVER give a dime to the realtor until you speak to the owner and make sure the exact ammount the owner is requiring to move in. the lease needs to be notorized by a real notary here and recorded in the courts for it to be valid otherwise the owner can just decide to ask you to leave, change the locks and deny you gave them money. The realtor will keep your deposit as a commission and you will not see it again. Don't think you will live out the security if it is not returned because you will come home and your locks will be changed and the owner will tell you they never recieved your deposit because the realtor kept it for her commission. Even if you are here on a short term get a lease.
