Hi. I have On Writing in my library. Such an important tell of the craft. I just wanted to let you know we have a writing/spoken word group that meets on Tuesday over on 文林街. It is quite inspiring. If you are interested in meeting fellow writers and hope to sharpen your mind along with your pencil, feel free to add my Wechat and I’ll get you the details.
Toodles,

It all comes down to the value you place on the quality of your work. I used to work at that school and it wasn't what I wanted. And if you want to argue 8,000 rmb is enough, hell I'll state 4,000 is enough. I make 175/hr at minimum. Because that is what I value my time at. It is called supply and demand. And 8,000 a month for 20 teaching hours is the reason why I do not work at Summit any longer. I often ask why schools like Summit and i2 have such high turn over if the pay is SO great...I work for people that treat as well as pay me well. I don't compromise on that nor in the high quality of my teaching. You shouldn't have to either. We leave our countries and families and culture and language to provide a needed service in other countries. I speak on behalf of good teachers, not the drunkards that find work just because they speak native English.
The long hour and a half breaks between classes are not fun and 8,000 rmb for what is considered full-time teaching is skimpy. The owner skims the fat and you think you are being fairly paid. Average in Kunming, because it is a large city should range from 120 to 150 per hour.
I hope I am not kicking a dead horse or corpse.
Still seeing if there were any word breathing masters out there for some interaction.
Writers need other writers.
For competition.
Discussion.
Inspiration.
Critism.
Ect.
I just met a guy named Matt and Analie this weekend. They write and they want to do something worth a damn. So that makes three of us. However, the more the better. If anyone is interested in setting something up. Weekly, monthly, whatevs. Let me know.
