G'day all you Foreign Experts.
Does anyone have any info on Shaoxing Uni - how good, how far from centre of town, how good/bad to work for etc? The city sounds good and the climate reasonable.

They had talked to me about a position and then all of a sudden I got dropped like a hot potato. Not sure why actually. I have been communicating with much better name schools so it is not that I am a tool or something like that.

They seemed a bit strange to me. I had three departments saying I could work in their department, but the leaders were offering no guidance.

Hope this helps, probably doesnt.

I visited w/them...was offered a position...
The lady that hires FTs impressed me as intelligent/sincere/ethical
Most of the FTs were young/untrained/recent grads
It's one of those 'suburban" universities...way out of town
And...Old ShaoXing is a place that'd be nice to be in...
There's the centrally-located Victoria School (I think it's called)
Located above the Xinhua Book Store
It's got the computers-for-EnglishLearning...
...w/small sessions w/FTs..no more than 6 or so...
I gave a MovieMagic demo...and was impressed by the students
As a Textile city, ShX has many folks w/experience w/foreigners...
