Hi, Neville! I'm not familiar with World English, but very familiar with almost every English training center in Nanjing. By any chance might you be referring to Global Village English? If so, they are rather disorganized, pay lower wages than competitors, and when I interviewed with them (twice) they seemed to be on the verge of collapse. When I first arrived in Nanjing in 2003, average training center salary for full time foreign instructors (from USA, UK, Canada, Australia) was 8000RMB per month, plus an apartment. Later on, salries went up to 9000RMB per month with no house, but monthly house allowance (usually around 1200RMB per month). By 2007, salaries in most training centers had dropped to 6000-6500RMB per month, but for the same number of teaching hours, or more. There is much to like about Nanjing, but based on my five years' experience there, English teaching work there is not recommended. The ESL industry is very unstable and fraught with deception and exploitation.
