Congratulations to Tanaya, a student of Honolulu class at TBI Bali. You’ve won a laptop from us on April promotion. To those who have yet to study at TBI, come and sign up for your class at the next promotion. We still have a loads of special discount and special prizes only for you. This…
It is now November 2017, so we thought it was time for an update on the wackiest joker in the whole TBI deck: Australian sociopathic con man, Luke Preece. It is now five years since we started this blog. My how the years have flown! Five years later and this unqualified con-artist Luke Preece is…
We recently made the mistake of looking at the TBI Kelapa Gading twitter account. Oh boy, there are so many grammar and spelling mistakes on that thing. They truly are an embarrassment to the name of English language education. They don’t know the difference between “quiet” and “quite”, for example. These people have such low-quality…
One of the many problems with TBI is that it is a bubble of similarly deluded individuals. It always was. It is a place where people tell themselves that their extraordinarily low standards are actually the benchmark for the whole industry! Their delusions of grandeur are nowhere more in evidence than when it comes to…
This blog has always been based on a simple proposition: TBI (The British Institute) is a fraudulent, delusional and rapidly declining company which is the sick man of the Indonesian TEFL industry. Over the past several years we have attempted to document in its decline by compiling and cross-checking all the information we have accrued…
So where does that leave Luke Preece and TBI as this company drags itself wearily into 2016, with an 82-year old self-aggrandizing egoist, Ning Anhar, at the helm? The short answer appears to be that Luke Preece’s crimes have largely caught up with him and he has paid a heavy price. The man who once…
In our last post about Preece, TBI’s bogan Machiavelli, we showed a photo of him handing out certificates at TBI Bali. Let’s use that as the starting point for the second part of this update. Specifically, let’s start with this question: How did we know that he was now at TBI Bali in the first…
“More on Luke Preece please. It’s very interesting. I knew him when he was making lunches for TBI Dago. What’s he up to now?” This request found its way into our inbox a few days ago, and we haven’t had the chance to respond to it until now. After all, we thought we had tirelessly…
In order to see how far TBI has fallen in the world, you just have to think about their policy of the never-ending promo. Every single month they are offering some sort of giveaway, bargain, discount or promo to their schools, which sets them apart form more professional outfits such as Wall Street and the…
We have heard for some months that not only has Mariam been fired- ahem, we mean resigned from TBI-but that her previous partner in crime- ahem, we mean advisor, Luke Preece– has been banished from TBI Bandung and Jakarta. He hadn’t been seen in the schools there for many months, much to the relief of…
