Tongshenghu Resort, Yuhua District, Changsha, Hunan 410116 China
Location: Tongshenghu International Experimental School (TSH) is located about 30 mins by car from the city centre of Changsha, the capital of Hunan Province. The city is not a tourist city and is not on the itinerary of many visitors to China however, Hunan has some interesting history and scenic sites to visit. The school is situated adjacent to the Tongshenghu resort and housing estate and enjoys a relatively clean environment and scenic outlook. It is much quieter than the city centre and a pleasant place to live. However, the weather can be very hot in summer with high temperatures and humidity while winter may see snow, so potential staff members need to be prepared for these extremes. A school bus travels twice an hour to the nearest town where there is a supermarket and access to taxis/buses for the trip downtown. Accommodation: the apartment allocated to teachers is a good size consisting of a bedroom, lounge/dining, kitchen and bathroom. The installation of a large airconditioner in the lounge area together with recent new furniture have made the apartment quite comfortable. Teaching role: I have been teaching students in both the primary and middle schools. The teaching load averages 16-18 fourty minute periods per week with occasional after hours commitments. Class size is approximately 40 students per class with each classroom is equipped with computer, internet capability and audio-visual equipment. In the main the children are well behaved and most are keen to improve their English. The salary and work load compare favourably with other schools in China and I can recommend the school to teachers looking for a postion in this part of the country.
