Agreed. My friend taught in Vietnam, and earned enough to pay for his masters degree in no time. All the while living in a great apartment complex. You must have to really love China to want to come and poison your lungs and teach English for peanuts.

I am not too certain. But I also think the English teachers are treated with more respect in said countries and not so much a dancing clown.

Eorthisio, do you have personal experience teaching in all of the said countries you mention? or at least do you know of people personally that you discussed this thoroughly? Im curious as to how this is 8 thumbs up and zero thumbs down... [i was under the impression that the pay to cost of living is dismal for south korea, and japan.] your thoughts. thx

Thanks for the reply Eorthisio. Im finishing up on a decent job on the outskirts of GZ. pay, boss and do-workers were great. Unfortunately, there's a massive restructuring going on at the prep-boarding school, and they wont be needing my position any longer. 18k rmb at 11 classes the first year, and 19k rmb at 8 classes this year was quite sweet. very boring here though. ill look into jobs at the countries you mentioned. Thanks again for the info and reply. Cheers.
