Dirty Secrets of China Foreign Teacher Salary, Pay, Earnings

[CFTUBeijing]

Thank you for enlightening people ChinaVet. Th eproblem is that all those websites you mention are spending a lot of money to make sure their misleading propaganda gets listed on page one of Google/Yahoo and most people are too lazy to look for the truth on pages 2-5 where many teachers have pointed out how they were so badly deceived.

As for pay issues in China, foreign teachers are the lowerts paid foreigners in China and alo the targets of many scams. Here are three links we suggest every teacher read before buying a plane ticket for China:

www.ChinaScamBusters.com

You are also invited to visit our website at www.ChinaForeignTeachersUnion.org and check both the blacklists and whitelists of schools so your stay in China can be a pleasant one and not one full of grief trying to collect your paycheck. 40% of the private schools in China are neither registered nor licensed and 52% of them regulary cheat their own staff as you can read at this link here:

Holy cow - OP is absolutely right. Anyone who reads the first two pages of Google search would be absolutely fooled in believing that horse manure. I think we should all send the link to this thread to every teacher we know. Those recruiters are incredibly devious!

Too bad www.ChinaScamBusters.com is on page three where only a few people will get to see it. The truth is always hidden by those who profit from the lies.

People who use agents get BIG haircuts on their salaries - from 25% - 66% and it is all well-documented at chinascambusters.com. So unless you are super lazy, WHY would you want to give away half of your salary - every single month?
