That is something that Korean IS asked in the interview, though. They said "it seems like you move to a new job every year or so, can you tell us about that?" and I basically said I wanted to get out of China, and Singapore was a good place to develop professionally, etc. I think if there's no way to do an online/weekend masters, and they won't let me teach ex. sci for them, then I'll leave my uni.

Also, is the Business forum the best forum on SF or what?

I really don't have a lot to add to this thread, but to say that I would only accept the offer from an internation school in Singapore if they were to give you 5,500 for your salary.

Other than that, good luck!

I saw my contact for the school on gmail chat, so I messaged him to ask if they had found a science teacher yet. He said yes, and sorry, hoped to work in the future, etc. I already decided to stay at my current job for a promotion/raise, so I figured what the **** and informed him that it's at the very least a professional courtesy to tell someone you offered a job to if you aren't going to hire him for it. Nobody at the company ever responded to my email after their offer, so I just told him "Good luck with your company." I mean it, too- I don't know how a place run so terribly will survive.
