Hello all and mainly those who know these places at the bottom

I wrote e-mails to these palces or I will when college open next week.
Any scoop on these

I want to work in Guangzhou or Shenzhen that s crisp and clean for me.

If any of these uni are not in those cities please let me know right?

Not so many in Shenzhen? Why that?

I keep looking � pedal down � no let up
What about any other others?
If I find some more, I can post them here

What about Foshan? Foshan University (how close to Guangzhou)
Thank you brothers and sisters
And if your English is better than me, well you get triple bonus points OK

If you didn't have your sights set on Guangzhou / Shenzhen, I would have recommended that you apply to Tsing Hua University.

If Tsing Hua University is in Guangzou or Shensen, I will apply to it
My idea is crisp and no strings

I apply to a whole lot - i wait.

if they say no, I say thank you n smile

if they say yes, I say thank you n smile

What the probem if I dont get every job - I only need one right

When I got my job car detailing, I was days walking along Paramatta Rd
I kept knocking on doors , no they say
finally some character says he will give me a chance
Now I got 2 part time jobs

Why don't you try the sniper approach and contact schools that are advertising and need teachers rather than the rather labour intensive scattergun approach.

How did you cobble together that list of universities? As a matter of fact, these institutions are all in Guangzhou except Shenzhen University.

Shenzhen boasts 2 tertiary institutions: apart from Shenzhen University, there also is the Polytechnic.

I have never heard anything good about Shenzhen University (I lived in Shenzhen and one of my part-time employers would routinely receive foreign students enrolled at that university looking for teaching jobs).
Also we had a very distinguished poster, Peter Bol, who started his China English teaching career at Shenzhen University; his verdict was damning!

As for the Polytechnic, a Canadian couple applied for jobs there, then abandoned their project in favour of joing a Guangzhou-based university. The reason? They thought the FAO was not honest in making his job offers!

Now I am not trying to pull you to Guangzhou; few people love this city, and you have to bear in mind that a growing number of tertiary institutions have had to relocate, and others are following, to a so-called "University Megatown" in the boonies, home to over a dozen universities and some 30'000 students...

You also enquired about FOSHAN; it's a nondescript town some 20-plus kilometers SW of Guangzhou.
There is one univesity there, but I have no experience with them. I have just now been to Foshan - and I used to work in that part of Guangdong (or not far from it) several years back.
The town centre has some charm, but it's tiny; the outlying areas are ugly and industrial. What struck me today was the hickville character of so many local people: it wasn't amusing in the least to be hailed by a loud "hello!" (not that it was uttered in a friendly tone).
But I had a good time teaching at a college. Maybe you should give it a try, though I don't really know why you would want to settle in Guangdong.
In my opinion, the most welcoming place is Zhuhai, followed by Zhaoqing - the latter without any university!

Hello Roger,

WAYTOGO- thank you mountains for all you info!
Crisp and clean - you are the man in cowboy boots

I thought you was French like some other dudes but see you must learnt it as school

I was looking at this list and all the countries for a long time and worked out 2 countries where I might have a snowflake
Indonesai and China

Then I need midnight action stations � something to do and palces to go and ��
and not cold � I hate the cold
So its gotta be a big city right
Red too many sadstories about people out in the country feel like life was gonna end soon-- ohno
So there only big cities in the far south of China cause anywhere else has cold winter
I was thining of Hanan too but haven�t tuned anything up


So I do a gogle and keep looking and you can find a mountain load of stuff - many have a list and can contact them with e-mail or fax
My college helps me with free fax as part of job find

people say - do your research and I be searching a lot.
pedal down - no let up

I am straight this� I have a certificate and diplomana (all completed in 2 years) but I have a couple of sparkling references and English is my proper language

So I know I not gonna be the professor or nothing like that
But what I am doing here in Oz � washing and cleaning cars and don�t wanna fall back into bad habits like my old buddies.

I read you lines about the teaching at uni in China and I know its no 4 foot right hander
I am used to shore break and breathing other peoples smoke

Anyway, I will give Zhuhia the goggle too and see what flashes up.

but I reckon by a few months, I will have the cash for my plane and a bit more and I will be onthe block
crisp

Thanks so much � so different from some of these other dudes here that think they are professor Einsten or some thing

OHNO you are confusing me again Roger witht the french (?)

but I get he scoop on colleges then they are a univeristy

info always changes

my place Strathfield Regional Community College was first just to help people with reading and writing - like me who had been on the dole or dropped outa school early
(well you woulda too if you went to my high school / prison )

or and also for characters new to Oz - they dont have much english so they wanna get a job or something like that

so they still got all these sort of courses but now they give diploma

I was doing really well with my Englsih comuncation certif wally- so they asked me if I wanna do a diploma

well what I am doing - nothing much so its free so i go for it
pedal down full bore

so SRCC is a college but maybe they will give degree in the future and named a university

so I know the juice on this one.
info always changes

It s the big China New Year so I guess evetyones off celabrating big time

No hurry for me - gotta save the plane ticket first -
no ticket no fly

thanks for all your help

but I gotta be careful where I go.

I do a gogle for the popluation numbers of the town

No town that is too small for me

like a 2 horse town and one of them is my girfriend

Why would you want to work in GZ? The air pollution will shorten your life by 20 years. Stay near the coast if at all possible. Zhongshan's a nice place; small but close to GZ, SZ, HK, and Macau.
