Jinan huh, what school? I worked there for almost 2 terms, I have a great Chinese friends there and Chinese parents even. I wouldn't recommend Jinan as a destination, but the people are nice, about the only redeeming feature of a place where, on some days, you can't even see 100 mtrs ahead of you!
Good luck there and lemme know how, and when you settle in and I'll be in touch with some folks there who may be able to help you a bit!
My$10 worth!
