July 10-28 2017 - Teach English in China!
Posted Tuesday, May 2, 2017 08:20 PM

Hey Guys, Sorry for the late posting, but I just had one of this summer's instructors drop out and so I am now looking for a fourth instructor to teach a conversational English class in Xi'an, China. The gig is pretty much as I described in earlier posts with the following exceptions. Instead of being housed of campus we will be housed across the street from the campus in a nice "boutique" hotel. (That is the hotel's term, not mine.)

In addition, instead of having to eat at the campus hotel restaurant as in the past we will now be given a daily food allowance. And finally, for the first time ever, our flight to China will be partially reimbursed. Unforturnately, still no reimbursement on the visa cost (approx. $140). However the good news on the visa is that it is a 10 year multiple entry visa, so you can return as many times as you want over the next 10 years at no extra cost. 

Here's the reimbursement breakdown:

- NPU will pay you 2100 RMB for the three weeks of instruction. (approx. $300)

- NPU will provide you accommodations in a room in the Leica Hotel (https://www.agoda.com/en-sg/xian-leica-hotel/hotel/xian-cn.html), which is a 5 minute walk across the street from the campus.

 

- NPU will provide you a 100 RMB/day food allowance. (About $14/day, which is enough for 3 inexpensive meals a day or one really nice dinner.)

 

- NPU will pay you 2000 RMB (approx. $290) towards the cost of an international flight to China. 

 

- NPU will provide your ticket from Beijing (or other arrival city in China) to Xi'an and back. 

 

- NPU will pay you  a total of 900 RMB to partially cover the following expenses: one night at your arrival city hotel and one night at your departure city hotel, round trip taxi fare from arrival city airport to hotel and round trip taxi fare from departure city airport to hotel. If you stay at an inexpensive hotel this will more than suffice. 

- NPU will arrange for a visit to the Terracotta Warriors or other places of interest around Xi'an, etc., but will no longer pay the entrance fee as it has in the past.

- Should you wish to plan a weekend trip on your own to one of China's many amazing cultural and historical sites during your stay in Xi'an, NPU can help you book a train, hotel, etc.

So that's the deal. Please read last year's post for further details. And if you are interested please contact me.
