[quote=DUKE06,226740]Hello! I will be teaching English at Jincheng College of NUAA from September 2006 until July 2007. I was wondering if anyone has any tips for a first-time US citizen coming to China for an extended period of time. Particularly, how do I open a bank account, obtain phone and internet service, and dress according to Chinese/Nanjing traditions? Is there a "dress code" expected of teachers? How do I convert RMB to USD? Is there a limit as to how much of my salary I can convert to USD? How will American electical devices (iPod, laptop, toothbrush, etc.) work in Nanjing? Finally, is there a high demand for English teachers in Nanjing? Since my teaching position at Nanjing University only requires 16 hours-per-week of classroom instruction, I anticipate having a lot of "free" time. Does anyone know where English teachers in Nanjing might be needed?I thank you all for your help! I am eagerly looking forward to coming to Nanjing in the coming weeks. Ankur[/quote]
