quick question:

Back in 2008 I had went to Fuzhou to teach English. My employer (who I met on davesesl) assisted me in getting a valid 12 month Z working visa and so off I wet.

However, I had a bad experience with the school and I quit after only 6 months as my employer was impossible to work with and made various threats against me including 'if you leave before the 12 months you will be banned from obtaining a Chinese working visa again'.

Could this be true? I am looking at teaching in China again but this time with a more respectable employer, I just hope I still am able too...

note: I'm a 24yo Australian with a TESOL + 6 months teaching experience + I'm 2/3rd through my BA. Is that enough to get a work visa these in China days or is the BA essential?

Finish your BA... then the whole map of Asia opens up to you.

As you your problems with your past employer... 99.9% of the time they are blowing smoke up your azz and the threats are meaningless.
