How many people out there in Chinanetland are teachers and how many of you do something else?

Why am I guessing the percentage is high?

Both.

 

Originally came to China on a business trip to help out with an office we were opening in China.

 

Came back a few years later and have been working as a teacher.

 

Just recently quit teaching to start doing localization/proofreading work.  I still plan on helping out with some tutoring of students on the side here and there though.

Yes, I'm a teacher. Maybe I can do something else later.

Holy words to live by, "Neither a teacher or learner be." Pole 1:30.

 

Ran several companies (Software outsourcing, Startup Consulting/Mentoring & R&D Center for a Transportation Apps)

 

I have been known to teach my employees or clients stuff.  So I guess, in that sense, I was a teacher too.

 

But to be an English Teacher?!?  Shiver.  They couldn't pay me enough.
