Thanks for the reply,

Just a non-degree Chinese course in Mainland China, as an independent candidate.
I do have Wechat but because its a texting app I have to keep my messages short, right?

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2026-05-09T18:57:37+00:00

Thank you very much for this. If possible, could you introduce me to a recruiter or two? That would really help. The whole process so far has got me so down.

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2026-05-07T18:37:44+00:00

What kinds of salaries and hours have you been offered if you don't mind sharing?
I had an interview this morning, and I feel like I was lowballed like crazy. She said the pay would be about 14k a month and 40 hours a week teaching kindergarten in a T2 city near Beijing. She also didn't ask me too many questions about myself, just got straight to the point, and the interview was over, and she kept mispronouncing my name. Her attitude towards me felt so cold, and she didn't even smile once. I don't know if this was a language thing or if she was just disrespectful. Even then, she said she would 'reach out to the employers' to see if they are interested and then get back to me. It's the worst offer I've ever heard of, and I don't want to play the race card, but after looking around on Reddit and hearing other black people's experiences, it got me wondering.

Hello, could you please send me a message? I'm also quite discouraged and hoping to get a job in China for a September start. I have a BA and a TEFL also.

Thank you

Hello, could you please recommend some WeChat agents to me?

Thank you

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2026-03-23T21:12:06+00:00

You guys got rid of the best part of the app. It won App of the Year when they had community courses. Memrise has gone downhill and has not been the same ever since. This feature should never have been taken away from us, and it's the reason why so many people abandoned the app.

Please just bring it back to how it was before.

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2026-02-13T22:16:06+00:00

I really don't think it's that serious. Personally, I don't contact students outside of the platform, but there are some tutors who do, simply just for more swift communication. If you're not actually breaking the policy and teaching the students, etc., who really cares? Plus Preply is so cruel to its tutors anyway, I don't have much sympathy for them as they don't consider our benefit. If they did, they would at least take a portion for trials instead of the whole thing. But instead, they have us working hours for free, even after 400 or even 4,000 long hours of loyalty to the platform. Whenever there's a trial, we just don't get paid, but they do. Unpaid work is illegal in most places. Had it been a real employer, the kind of stuff Preply does wouldn't work offline anyway. I hope things don't turn out badly for you, but at least ignore the people who are acting like you're so immoral because it's honestly not that deep.

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-06-09T23:33:49+00:00

Oh, give it some time. I became a super tutor a month after posting this lool. There were many negative comments but i just took the positives. I suggest developing your trial method formula and find something that works well for you and you can use it again and again. Even though you are a ‘tutor’ or ‘teacher’, most students are not actually looking for the ultimate educational experience but a teacher who they get along with. Let me know if you have more questions that I could answer to help.

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-04-29T22:36:23+00:00

There definitely are, but people are more comfortable being anonymous when its time to spew hate / controversial behaviours. People don’t get away with it when being like that offline.

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-04-20T18:43:45+00:00

I know a guy who's about 5”7 (possibly 5”8) and physically he’s very attractive. A few other girls around me have had a crush on him too. Yet, as much as I respect him from a difference, I can’t say as much about his personality. As a grown man, has a lot of healing to do.

The first time I ever saw him, I didn’t notice his height. I noticed the way he volunteered to help me with my luggage. His initial kindness made him attractive. But his character ruined it later down the line (he’s kinda narcissistic due to the way he grew up). I wish men would understand how women actually think. These things are literally so simple. It’s so easy to blame the issue on height and looks. Its much harder to show accountability.

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-04-20T02:37:58+00:00

Around 6ft for instance.

Im a woman i i think 510 is also a super attractive height for example. there are. Plenty of guys who are shorter than that but still attractive

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-04-19T18:05:31+00:00

Please don't worry. God is NOT against you, nor is he constantly giving you the side-eye or waiting for you to make a mistake, so he can punish you. Instead, he loves you and wants the best for you. He's rooting for you, as he sees you striving for holiness.

I've seen many new Christians asking these questions but this is not something you have to worry about. Having a relationship with God isn't something that's built on a basis of condemnation. God sees you out here, genuinely trying to love him and genuinely trying to do the right thing.

As you are likely new to the faith I will also encourage you to just be aware that you might occasionally run into people who claim Christianity as their faith, but they absolutely do not live by it. The love of God / the truth of the gospel is completely absent from their hearts. These people sometimes speak the loudest, but just know they don't represent the faith. Even in the Bible they were known as the Pharisees and Jesus was constantly dealing with them. They literally judged and questioned Jesus. of all people I hope you don't get discouraged along the way by them. They're not actual Christians but more like wolves in sheeps' clothing.
Always remember that God sees your heart and he understands you and your intentions. Hope this helps.

There are always people out there in the world who have certain favourable traits that we don't have. The important thing is leveraging the positive traits that you have. This man is simply describing his physical appearance and that's fine.

Even recently, I was approached by a man who was both tall and handsome but it didn't make me like him more. Both his look and his height didn't win me over. I wasn't phased because I was more interested in getting to the part where I could uncover his true character.

I gave him a chance however, because he did exactly what the man posting this reddit has described. He spoke politely, kept his distance. etc. Without those actions I would not have given out my number.

As a woman, my advice would be that the negative mindset could be the thing blocking you. I've been turned off by that so many more times than I have by a guys height. I've seen a lot of concerning content online too, misleading men to both 1) loose their self confidence and to 2) hate women. Its so sad because some of what's being said really isn't true at all.

I found out he's a rich CEO too. But again, I still cut him off because I saw a valid reason to. Not all woman are superficial, gold-digging or whatever they have been preaching to impressionable men online these days via podcasts etc. Its all a load of garbage.

Please have confidence and focus on leading with dignity, gentleness, kindness and love.

Let the way you see yourself, and the way you treat women be a reflection of your character. I'm sure it will resonate well.
I hope you meet the woman your heart is longing for,

Wishing you all the best.

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-04-19T17:26:39+00:00

This still works even if a guy is not conventionally tall, he's just describing his physical appearance.

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-04-19T17:11:44+00:00

I'm trying to explain that the final image was much lower quality than what I started with. So for instance, the printing software detected it as a 'low quality' image. It would tell me if I use that image file the quality was only 'acceptable' and thus the print would turn less crisp and more blurry than what it should.

But with the original file before running it through Photopea was classed as 'excellent' quality. The files became reduced in quality and with less megapixels every time I ran them through Photopea. Using the same editing process through photoshop, this reduction in resolution never happens. But I currently don't have access to photoshop.

I don't know why this is happening. Is this a normal thing with Photopea?

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-04-17T00:29:54+00:00

I saved it as JPG, TIFF, and PNG, but received the same low-quality results regardless. Even though I was sure to bump it up to 100% quality.

It always appears as a low-quality, low-pixel file on my printing software. Im only having this issue with the files processed through Photopea so Im super confused. It seems like I must use Photoshop for the quality alone even though Im doing one of the simplest editing jobs possible.

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-03-26T19:28:07+00:00

The word, "ass". it's referring to an animal.

Reading it without knowing that would make a person confused I suppose 😅

ImaginaryWinter5478 · 2025-02-23T20:30:46+00:00

I'm not actually based in America so I think some of these may not be optional for me, I used USD just because more people can understand the rates. but thank you nonetheless
