It’s always very interesting to read articles about China written by foreigners, thank your for sharing your experience. Private shools are much different with public schools, they run more like a firm. It should be very hard to fire a teacher in public schools. Variety may be the most important feature of China (let’s ignore politics), you can see the best things, you can have the worst experience.

Thanks the Internet!
Have fun in China!
