Teach Chinese college and middle school students English over Skype

Nowadays, in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai, it has been a big fashion for parents to find an English native speaker tutor for their kids. I was told that to get a private one-on-one tutor like that costs about 200 RMB an hour. Chinese Winter break is coming in a week or so, there will be a huge demand for English foreign tutors by then. Though physically outside of China, now via internet, everyone can be an English tutor. Based in Silicon Valley, networking with Chinese all over the world, xianbuzhu.com provides you with a platform for people to trade knowledge and experiences via Skype, MSN  or QQ. You just need to set up your xianbuzhu time and open your tutoring service on xianbuzhu.com, and then wait for students to book your time. The system will help you to take care of the timezone issue. Your schedule can only be booked 24 hours before class time. Once someone books your time, the system will inform you with an email. Then you have at least 24 hours to prepare for your class.  By the class time, you just need to sit in front of your computer and teach over Skype or MSN. Students will pay you after class time via PayPal or Alipay. Teenaged overseas Chinese kids are very good tutor candidates as well. My middle school son (ABC) and two of his friends are all on xianbuzhu teaching Chinese middle school students.   There are also people on xianbuzhu teaching even for free. If you or your friends are interested in giving back your time to people currently reside in China, please go and take a look. It is a rewarding experience for everyone including our kids.
