Former FT in the PRC - 2016-04-14
In response to Re Education in the UK (amused)

Is your financial condition so desperate and/or your qualifications so limited that you must fly to China to poorly perform a job that you loath?

Loath or Loathe?

Loath is an adjective meaning "unwilling." It ends with a hard th and rhymes with growth or both.

Loathe is a verb meaning "to hate intensely." It ends with a soft th like the sound in smooth or breathe.

Examples: He was loath to admit that he was included in the deal.
(He was unwilling)

Alex loathes spiders.
(Hates them intensely)

You are jumping to conclusions about Paul Fox! Maybe he was uninforemed, so he taught at a private school/language mill in China! Maybe he should re-direct his teaching efforts on behalf of Chinese employers in the public sector. He will probably get lower pay, but huge respect from students who wanna learn if he's a trier! That's my experience, for what ir's worth. Money ain't everything! I came to China initially to help public college trainee teachers, not the offspring of the idle rich, and I haven't waivered from my initial aim!
