Has anyone taught at or know anything about Meishi International School in Chengdu? Any info will be appreciated.

Thanks!!

I had a good look around there a while ago and talked to some of the people that mattered. If you have never been there yet, it is about 45 mins out of the town centre down to the south of the city by public bus. The campus is pretty nice, and the setup generally seems very pleasant. There are quite a few foreign teachers there already, both in the foreign and Chinese sections, so you should be able to ask for some contact addresses for checking up.

I kinda liked the place when I went there, but the location and the salary wasn't exactly what I was looking for (though it is far from the worst I have seen/been offered!)

The FAO seemed to have her head screwed on right, and the Vice Dean actually seemed professional and could speak knowledgeably about educational matters in English.

Hope this helps

Thanks so much for your help. The salary they offered me is the best I have gotten in China but I here the school is just full of scandal. But hey, I guess I am willing to over look that. I really want to get back to China and so far, they have offered me the best package. Times a ticking and I have about a month to get everything in order.

I actually was offered the position of ESL teacher and librarian which is kinda interesting. I did not realize it was so far from downtown.....oh well.

Could you shrink the size of your avatar a bit, please? Also, that guy doesn't look anything like "Wang Fei and her daughter".
