People breaking the rules in China? Surely, you must be joking.

I seriously doubt you could prepare good material teaching 8-hour days unless you're just repeating the same lesson over and over again.
I also highly doubt you could make 27k this way. I've not seen any training centres that are able to offer 40 solid teaching hours per week at an hourly wage. Normally they would offer you a monthly salary, which would be much lower.
8 teaching hours a day would also kill you in no time. A typical load for a primary school is about 20 hours per week. At a training centre, it could be much less outside of the peak season.
If you want to make money teaching English in China, I suggest moving to the polluted East. There are more customers, and the pay is better.
I don't know anyone who has one, but last week when I went to the PSB the official asked me if I'd like to apply for one (I didn't ask).
Dear elizaj,
Although my wife, her recently deceased grandmother and I are not US residents or citizens, we have heard that the dem community is able to bend the rules slightly to allow foreign nationals to participate in US elections.
In light of this, and your perceived neutrality with regards to party affiliation, it is our hope that you might afford us the opportunity to show our support for write-in candidate XiJingPing in the 2020 federal elections.
Xie Xie!
Shave the beard, especially if you're planning to teach children. Chinese people don't like facial hair.

Documentary Under the Dome captivates China
发布者Some places have adequate trash collection service but locals still choose to burn the trash to cook with and heat their homes. It's pretty common with the elderly. They also like to burn coal inside their homes when radiant or electric heating is available to save money.
I am living in Shandong Province, which is just about ground zero for air pollution. The main crop here is wheat, and they burn it.
When I stayed in Dali for the entire month of February, the air quality index was over 100 almost every day. There is very little industry in Dali, but you can clearly see where the air pollution is coming from...farmers burning stuff. I have a clear view of the valley, and I toured it several times on a bicycle.
Documentary Under the Dome captivates China
发布者Not all the pollution in China comes from factories. A lot of it comes down to bad personal choices like driving a car to save face when a bus or bicycle would do instead. How about all the uncontrolled exploding of firecrackers? When the government tried to regulate it people got angry that their right to foul the air was being infringed upon.
How about the 700 million farmers that are constantly burning garbage and organic material (rather than rotating crops)? Agricultural pollution in China is huge problem, but it's not something that can be dealt with easily because many of these farmers simply can't afford to adopt modern farming methods. It will likely take decades to move these people into urban middle class environments and switch to large scale farming.

Kunming north-south metro lines near completion
发布者Anyone know when Metro Line 3 will come online? I read in another article that the local government was being pretty quiet about it. I thought I recalled a completion date of spring 2015, but maybe it's been pushed back to 2016 now?
