FAQ / Thnking about the plunge / My Story..

Hi all

Yet another newbie wishing to know all about it once again - sorry - I know it gets boring for you lot that are "onsite" and are actually living/doing it in China.

Still deciding if it is for me or not.

Finishing up after getting outsourced from IT - Sick of PC problems so need a career change and thinking of taking a TESOL course

I'm 48 and without a degree so China seems to be the best place to start in my new career after I complete it.

However I some queries for you.

Do schools seriously employ 49 year old blokes with no degree and no experience or am i just donating $2000 to some people here in Sydney?

Where in China for a first job (as above) should I be looking at?

I've read the best thing to do is travel to the city of your choice and try and get a job when you arrive - isn't it hard to get the correct visa after you enter the country?

thanks in advance - and please bear with me lol
