In response to Re Rubbish Yuncheng Middle School, China (martin hainan)

Provinces (and autonomous regions) vary on their requirement for a criminal background check
from the home country. I can confirm that Fuzhou, Guangxi and Yunnan currently do not
require it.

I did apply for a job in Yunnan, Dali to be exact and they required a criminal background check. The salary offered was 6,000rmb which is lower than the job in Shanxi. Another school in Kunming were hovering around 6,500rmb also.

I apologize for not including England in the list of preferred countries of origin for
foreign teachers of English in China. Perhaps that is an unconscious result of teaching
English and speaking American.

No offence taken. The school simply said that as they teach English based on textbooks issued from England they 'prefer' native Brits as a first choice.

If I were you, I would not be confident about who your employer is until you receive a Z visa. And I would never express mail original documents.

I had spoken to the school, they have answered all my questions with what appears to be unusual frankness for China, they have a website, sent me details of their registration numbers. Thetruth confirmed what they say. He and the other teacher from a neighbouring city confirmed that they have to have the documents so I will send notarised copies. I am happy to show them the originals when I arrive. I can't imagine anyone having the gall to send falsified documents and then trying to blag it later but then again...

My initial concerns were based on a simple google search of 'Yuncheng schools' and all this slew of things about Yuncheng English Village appeared and the school I applied to seems to have been somehow intermingled with it. In some ways I pity to them as they genuinely do seem to be trying to do things correctly. In fact the Foreign Affairs person I spoke with said that they would gladly offer a higher salary but when they tried this they received unpleasantries from the local competition so I think it is in fact Yuncheng English Village that is artificially keeping salaries low in the area. They then decided to give a higher salary overall by paying for holidays etc.

I appreciate everybodies input, my gut feeling is they school are honest, yes, I do have the qualifications that I could go elsewhere but I think as a starting point to emerse myself in the real China and study Chinese its a good place to do so.
