Cool you'll be in Yuncheng round about Spring Festival. Yuncheng is a fine city, and another poster has supplied reasonably current information that suggests the ielts company will return to its former glory come next academic year. I say so coz contracts between agents and schools will be finalized at the start of an academic year rather than midway through, as parents will gladly pay the extra fees to the schools along with the other fees at the beginning of an academic year.
I've done my due diligence, and wish to teach alongside a TA at a state school in China, even though that will necessarily be on a reduced salary due to the TA's presence. My priority is teaching well, not maximizing my salary, and a TA is the way to go in that respect in my view.
Impart the latest, please. Thanks for responding to my initial post.

Providing we can get from Beijing to taiyuan, yes I'll be thereabouts for Spring Festival. The problem is is that the tickets were on sale early this time. and they're gorn-train-wise I mean. So, it looks like an aeroplane. Her Chineseness was on about booking a coach, but sod that for a game of soldiers. We bought the International tickets yonks ago.

Mr River and his gang seem okay to me. Yes, nice to have a TA. True they can spy a bit but as long as you're a confident person- well that's merely just amusing. If you are subservient to a fragile disposition, maybe best not have a ta.
