Is it possible to find a place that'll take on volunteers and provide you with room and board. There's lots of volunteer things on the net but they all want 2 grand for setting it up which is a load of bollocks.
nice to hear from you again sorry man, i have no clue about teaching in china...but, best of luck to you
Try this: Shenzhen College Of International Education, Shenzhen,China. This school teach Chinese students A-Level courses. It is quite a warm place( i mean both the weather and the people). I am going to graduate from there in 2008 !!
You better go to China first and from there it will be much easier for you to set it. Doing it remotely gives all kind of scums all the opportunities to rip you off... You are the one that need to get paid for teaching English! not them... It is really fishy the deal you got there...
