Job Description
Mr. Fang is looking for two full-time native English teachers for each school for a commitment of at least two semesters. The school will provide a salary (approx. 5000 RMB/month), accommodations and meals. This is a great opportunity for the adventurous few who enjoy living off the beaten track, in addition to the opportunity to form a bond with a banker who was instrumental in helping China develop to where it is today. This would not be for the feint of heart – little to no English is likely spoken in both locations.
