As most of the FTs work on contract here in china. Somedon't finish their contracts and run. The other might complete their 6 months or 1 year contract.I personally don't like to jump from one job to another but I had to move on for some or other reason.Moving from place to place is pretty common because of contract completion, getting a better paid job, travel to another location, your chinese boss don't like you any more and so on.

I am just wondering if there is anyone who has worked for more years in the same school. I would like to know what was Experience and what kept you there for so long. Mention the school and univerity name and whether do you recommend other Foreign Teachers?

Nest month we will be signing on for a second year. It's mostly the housing that makes me willing to stay. The pay is only average. The students are pretty entertaining though.

I've completed every contract, although I regret doing so with one company. I've always been asked back yet moved on because I was less than satisfied. I am now thinking that I might sign for a second year with DILI, if negotiations go well.
