Martin Haian, a Chinese name.....I thought you may be American.....no way. Your English and cultural understanding of America is way to low.Learn English before you criticize thsoe who understand their native tongue of English. Some of you Chinese supervisors (only those in insular provinces like Jiangxi, and in central China westward) do not understand English enough. And then you get mad at foreigners when you get confused. I suggest you write down exactly what you mean and let the foreigners do the same . And then do not try and be a mind reader and think you can disregard what the foreigner said. The real big city Chinese foreigners and they were right when they told us to not trust inland provinces. It is just language difficulties. Do not get angry. Learn from the Chinese in larger cities.

I enjoy your posts, economy or ESL. I like your no-nonsense approach.

Dear G[edited] Doctor, you are posting on an ESL teachers forum, at www.eslteachersboard.com.
As an EFL instructor, would it be rational if I complained about my Chinese University employers on the Journal of Political Economy and criticize the capability of economists?

I d not ever teach ESL

If you are just an ESL teacher, then go there. I d not ever teach ESL. In further checking a person in their 20s did not understand. She said she talked to the econ dpet but had not. I am patient with Americans and Chinese in their 20s.

how man articles have you published for refereed academic journals over your 30 year career?. My career in economics has been over 30 years. I have published at the request of Chinese and American economists. If you have not figured out that there are different parts of the CCP, you will later after a decade or two of being here, like myself. I was not working through a job agent. I was working directly with the school. Chinese do not debate as much in public but they do a lot in private and almost all Chinese economists are non-Maoists. (There is no economics to Maoism that has any logic. Economists are not philosophers. They are realists.) You ever heard of Deng Xiaoping, who opened China up for you and I. I love the math and science abilities of Chinese. I think you should continue you to concentrate on helping them with ESL/ That's just not for me. Once you get a PhD they wish to use you in another area and expect you to publish, which I love. Chinese economists are great to work with, so objective and they understand the math so well. If you do not like economics, that is fine. . There are 70 million party members and they are VERY individualistic . . But they are also so much moor sophisticated in math and science than many Americans

They are so sophisticated that in public they are united, unlike Americans., who too often love to attack each other. In about 1.0 years when you have had more China experience , you may understand what I wrote., But maybe not. Either way, I wish you the very best

If you have the urge to assume you know more about my life than I do, well you know, that is the American youth way. Why do you think I prefer Chinese? They are most often smarter and kinder. I would never care nor speak about your career. Good luck with ESL. I am sure you are great!!!!!!!!!!!

Your 'job agent' did all the lying. If you have taught in "all the famous places" in China, why are you using a recruiter to contact Universities?
Blaming Mao, the Communist party, and Jiangxi province is as sensible as finding George Washington, Virginia Republicans, and the State of Virginia responsible for being refused a job at Virginia Tech.
