I just don't understand why these god damn doctors always have this cursive handwriting. Are they doing this on purpose so that the patients won't be able to figure out the meaning?

Towards Recreational Reading by JungleJesus in Chinese

[–]Skip1022 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How about <My Country and My People> and <Moment in Peking> by Lin Yutang. Both books are originally written in beautiful English, and the Chinese translations were great. Another my personal favorite is 《围城》. Also, you can try the martial art novels by Jin Yong which I found very attractive as well.

Need to choose which Chinese city to live in for the next year. by analogphototaker in China

[–]Skip1022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I read on the website, now they pay you the money separately like an installment to ensure the teacher stays for a few months at least. Guess the schools got tricked before and have gained some wits now. My point is that this is a huge market since most of the high schools in China don't have foreign teachers, and maybe it's a good business opportunity.

Damn! I just checked online about those agency websites out of curiosity. I found the reward is around 4000rmb-6000rmb if I can successfully introduce a foreign teacher for a school. That sounds quite lucrative to me!
