Hi all,
new to the site, not that new to China. Been living/working in China since 1998 and now, well since Jan 2003, in Beijing.
I am not a teacher and know absolutely nothing about teaching English, albeit one year in Shenyang I taught hotel staff English in exchange for an upgrade to a VIP suite.
My previous jobs gave the opportunity to visit many places in China ranging from large cities to places so small that there was no beaten track to be off.
My Mandarin is understandable but not fluent and at time still have trouble with the old 4 is 4, 14 is 14, 40 is 40 tongue twister.
