Hi

Does anyone have any experience of Dongchen International School in Mianyang?

What is Mianyang like?

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

Maxine

This school generated some truly horrible-sounding news lately by one disgruntled ex-teacher. True or not - I would not want to be his successor!

MIanyang is just one huge and ugly sprawl of concrete with hardly anything cultural thrown in. I would not even visit it in a Rolls ROyce at someone else's expense!

If you want to find out about your future experiences in a Chinese city, I suggest you purchase a LONELY PLANET first thing, so you can make an educated decision!

Exclamation STOP... DON'T DO IT!!! DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID! JUST DON'T GO THERE! MIANYANG IS A TERRIBLE, FILTHY CITY! MY LUNGS WERE CLOGGED WITH COAL DUST THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS THERE! THE SCHOOL IS ALSO FILTHY AND TOTALLY DISORGANISED. MADAME DIRECTOR AMY WANG HAS MENTAL PROBLEMS... I.E. SHE'S NUTS! IF YOU ASK QUESTIONS OR WANT TO KNOW ANYTHING THEN YOU ARE A TROUBLE MAKER. SHE POINTED TO A CLASSROOM ON OUR FIRST DAY AND SAID 'TEACH'!

PLEASE READ THE JOB INFORMATION JOURNAL FOR MORE HORROR STORIES ABOUT THIS TERRIBLE SCHOOL.

JUST DON'T GO THERE!
