Does anyone have any info on this school? I got a job offer.

7000rmb salary
Free apartment
20hrs teaching
20 hrs office work
two free excursions
5000rmb airfare allowance
Teach kids 5-16 Tue-Sun. Mon off
I worked one year in Kunshan City.


I don't know which school they will place me in yet.

I posted about the difficulty of black teachers finding work. Apparently Anhui province has such a great need for FTs that it is easier for black teachers to get some work.

I googled and am concerned about the comments I read. Some teachers were very disappointed and some loved it. It depended on the location. I want to go to the location that is best for me.

I do not have any experience working for Bluniverse, but I am familiar with Tongling.
It is a city of about a million, with about 4 or 5 foreigners working in the high schools and college. I did meet one black American that had been working in Tongling for several years, and he seemed ok with his life there.

Tongling will not have as many Western amenities as Kunshan, but it does have a fairly active English corner that is attended by many of the local business people.

If you do decide to work there, then send me a PM, and I can share more info with you.
