[quote=GAFFER,393304]There are many sites and agencies providing teaching job contacts. Remember the agencies are more concerned about their commission and not the conditions of the job. Here are a few;
http://www.teachingd.com/english/
http://raoulschinasaloon.com/index.php
http://www.eslcafe.com/jobs/china/index.cgi?

There are also many pitfalls and possible problems for the uninitiated. Try and get opinions from past or present teachers. Even government schools in China work as a business, and managers can be ruthless. Generally the higher status the school/college the better conditions and pay....and qualififications required. The best jobs need qualifications and experience.

Make sure the school will get you a Z visa. Do not travel on a toursit visa on a promise. Check your English contract is the same as the Chinese one. You might find you are agreeing to make up time for Chinese holidays or providing free overtime. Beware of extra out of hours duties. Some of the sites also have forums, read them carefully, particularly those reporting bad experiences.

And finally, good luck ;)[/quote]
