How many of the teachers say they are from canada? Most are not! The Chinese government is getting wise. It jut took them a long time.

Once the chinese can learn that English must be taught different then Chinese is then that would be a start. China has the lowest English level of all Asian countries except North Korea, so it is pretty obvious that they need help.

When your highest English level student CET 8 level cannot speak the language there is a problem.

Besides who would break the cherries of all the young ladies here if it wasn't for the native English teachers. You think every body wants to save ot for their wedding?

There are more than 100,000 openings for foreign native English speaking teachers in China. There are less than 30,000 teachers to fill these positions. Apparently most people in China don't think as you do. They want to learn English. Not just grammar and what a Chinese English teacher can teach them. They want to learn to speak as well. Yes, I agree. Your English is atrocious. You could use a foreign teacher to give you some lessons as well.

You must have done a real difficult, long and stressful background check on ESL teachers to post a survey like this... How long did this study take you? Or are you just assuming about this, like I'm assuming GOOGLE Glass is in stores tomorrow?? Yawn!!!!!

The reason English teachers have such an easy time meeting the qualification and experience requirements, is because the English level in China is ABYSMAL! Local teachers consistently overestimate their abilities, which leads to people like you convincing yourself that your English is actually on par with a native speaker. Why else would you have the audacity to claim China doesn't need real English teachers? But the reality is, when faced with an actual speaking situation, types like you will avoid encounters, to hide your poor English skill. As arrogant and overconfident as you are in your ability, you actually KNOW that your English won't withstand scrutiny.
--- And I think we laowai la ji are smart enough to see a brainwashed nationalist parroting the xenophobic propaganda he's heard from news media and gossip all day. ---- Usually I try my best to call attention to the distracting rhetoric that your government's media disseminates, so that you focus your hatred on foreigners instead on the failed government that is screwing you over all the time. But in your case, I make an exception. You're obviously too far gone to listen to reason, so I say you DESERVE all the mistreatment you get from the government. You look down on us foreigners; your government has even more disdain for YOU. You have accepted your role as a mindless drone, to the point that you go to an Expat website to spew your translated propaganda to people who have done you no wrong. I understand now why human lives are worth so little in this country - you don't do anything worthwhile with your life. And we expats are just a bunch of gullible fools, that we waste time on filth like you in this country. All foreigners in China (from all the countries in the world, not all of them are even teachers) amount to a total of 600,000 people. 0.04% is too much immigration for you? Idiot! The reality is, there are probably more brain-dead laozhong in this country, itching to attack and murder innocent foreigners!
