I've been teaching in china almost two years now, three different schools.  First I came through a program, the "Appalachians Abroad" program through Marshall University (do a quick search--don't need to be a student there to participate).  The programs give you the support you may need in case of any problems, and there may be some problems, due to cultural differences, bad school administration, etc.  You can also do a search for anything that relates to bad experiences, school reviews in china.  there are many forums and websites devoted to these things.\n\nIt is easy to find a job through online ads, and you can set this up before you go.  Check out www.abroadchina.org, I got my last two jobs through this site.  It is reliable and straightforward.  If you are certified and have experience, you will have bargaining power.  The chinese will usually low-ball on salary and try to ask you to teach the maximum number of hours.  16 hours at 3500-5000RMB is normal for university is the norm, some have gotten less.  Younger age levels you will teach more hours but should expect a much higher salary.\n\nbeware of TEFL sites that may be frauds, and always ask for past/current foreign teacher's email addresses, to make sure you have chosen the right school.  China is a fascinating country, good luck.

I don't know about Guangzhou, China, but http://visajourney.com has a large community of people dealing with that Embassy.  If you post your question there (its free), any number of people would be able to answer it since they have either been through the process and can tell you what to expect at the interview or are currently going through the process in Guangzhou.

I live in Iowa with the exact same contacts. It regularly drops to 0 or below in the Winter. I expect you will have no problems at all in China.

Of course China will make advantage because of their consistency in policies. I hope Indian counterpart will rise to occasion and make the visit mutually beneficial.
