Come on!

A good piano teacher in China can earn 200-300 RMB an hour in a small city! A foreigner that is earning less than 4000 a month is being ripped-off big time!

Schools and middle-men earn most of the foreigners' money, between the students 300-400 is usually raised and loads of skimming is done to rip off the foreigner and student.

Complaining about the ===violin=== inequality is only clouding the issue.

Chinese middle school teachers:-

-earn well over 1000 basic per month with 500 in bonuses
-get a free or cheap house
-get bonuses at New Year and national day
-get summer holiday pay
-work 9-12 classes a week (play internet and sleep on desk other times)

I don't have a degree but I'm a native speaker of English my IELTS level is 9.0=expert

So go on Chinese English teachers did you do IELTS? what did you get?

Respect to to any of you with 8.0 or over, you really should be earning the same as me, congratulations. I know that many but not all middle school teachers are very poor and would score as low as 5.0-6.0-7.0, why should they earn the same as me?

Also, have you heard of demand and supply?
