Hey hun! I can help you with speaking and listening if you'd like.  LiveMocha.com will help you also.  It's free to join also.  If you join, find me on there. I'm Slavic.Muse and I'lm an American and I help lots of people with speaking, listening, and writing on there.  :)

And Rin is right. You'll be just fine.  I picked up and moved to Serbia because my boyfriend is from Serbia.  I had a little money, but not much, no job planned out, a suitcase of clothes, and a mouth full of prayers.  Though I did not land a job here just yet, I am going to be working in Ukraine in the fall which will give me the needed experience I need for the jobs here in Serbia...so everything always falls into place.  And we're all here to help each other with these transitions.  TEFL teachers have to stick together.. we are a breed of our own. :)

Hi Astrid :)

I am sure everything will fall into place when you get to China. As Robert is already there, i'm sure he'll have made some contacts. :)
