Re: Finding a good teaching job in China = Exhausting

If you will sign a one year contract and then see if you might like the work, please do not come to China. I was about to recommend to you some good public schools for employment. But it seems to me that you are still trying to figure out life, and coming to China will not give you any answers. It will give you even more challenges than the ones you are going through.

Some foreign people that come leave rather quickly even when the school does live up to their obligations. These foreign teachers seem to not like the town or get overwhelmed by the whole country. Last year there was one British girl in my small town who came to work at a local school. Six months later she just had to go home. She said, " I just have to." The school paid money for her to come and lost on that investment.

My school currently has a very young guy who is 23 years with your exact qualifications. But he does not have the attitude of seeing if he likes it or not to complete his contract. He plans to complete his contract, a plan he had before coming here.
