I got accepted to teach in a Hangzhou public school. The agent is asking me to fly in 2 months early to teach at a private preschool before the public school starts. Apparently the principal of the public school also owns a preschool. The agent said he will just change the date of the contract to make it match the starting date of the preschool.

Then when I asked to talk to the principal, the agent said I can't because he doesn't know English. Is anybody else's alarms and whistles going off about this, too? Or am I being too flaky? Honestly, I am about to just block the agent's WeChat if one more weird thing comes up that just doesn't make sense.

You could say you can't go until the main job start date because of reasons.
