I guarantee just one of those sites will give you the anwer you want (or not) in less than 21 hours and 30 minutes

Personally, I recommend Cambridge or the Bay Area for international students, not anywhere on the mainland.

Nanjing is not too bad! Pretty bigg city on it's way to become a 1st tier city. Cost of life would be fine, rent outside campus may be a little expensive. 

 

Pros: Not too far from Shanghai by train.

 

Never been to Xian

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
