The Korean population in my city is an affluent one. Parents usually send their children to private (and pricey) "international" schools and then to after-school programs at institutions called simply "academy", and also expensive.

So, you should be able to command a decent wage for private tutoring. Put the four students in a group, set a regular timetable, say once a week, and charge them by the month. Get a commitment of at least three months AND paid in full and in advance.

You can probably charge 100 RMB per student per 50-to-60-minute hour. 400 RMB per hour is not unreasonable especially if the lessons are given after hours or on a weekend.

Don't sell yourself short.

RMB 100 per student for specialized tutoring is really low, particularly for Beijing.

Red_Fox:

You're right. 100 is low. But for group work, 4 students to the group, 100 per head amounts to 400 an hour.

Now if Jason or his students prefer one-on-one, no less that 250 or 300 per student. Face-to-face. In BJ.

400 an hour for a group of 4 isn't too bad, imo. Twice a week, maybe. 8 hours a month. That's 3,200 in the pocket. I'd take the job if it arose.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
