Hello friends,

I'm posting this as a helpful little warning to any of you who want to work at PKU Kindergarten... Please, for your own sanity- STAY AWAY!

I have been teaching in China for approximately 5 years now, and this contract was the only one I have not been able to complete.

I could not complete my resignation period as it just became impossible to work there after they knew I was leaving.

You will be exhausted and unhappy if you work for this school. The Chinese staff will try make you work as much as possible. They will put their workload on you. They will not assist you in class. You will not be informed of anything until the last minute. You will also be treated differently because you are foreigner and are paid a higher wage than they are. They will not assist you when you need help, and when you ask for help they will treat you like a spoiled child. And when I say they I am not referring to "Chinese" people, I am referring to the school and head office. I have nothing against Chinese (I am happily Married to a Chinese).

Teaching is an amazing career path, but not so amazing if you do it at this school.

Please trust me when I say YOU CAN DO BETTER! Find another job!
No about of money is worth your soul and happiness.
