Chapter 40 Conditions and Hesitation

be a teacher?

Chen Yaozu thought he was joking, so he smiled and shook his head, “No, no, no, I still like the feeling of driving on the road every day and collecting tips from every customer who gets my takeaway!
Occasionally, I get the surprise of receiving business from big clients like you, and that’s what I want.”

Faced with Chen Yaozu's rejection, Ms. Victoria Wood seemed to have been mentally prepared. After all, for such a unique talent, everyone might have their own concerns!

However, Ms Wood believes more can be done:
“Although as a public high school teacher, the salary may not be high.

The annual salary for new high school teachers in Los Angeles is generally $45000 before tax, and Portwater High School is no exception.

This annual salary is a bit low, but it will increase every year with the years of service, and of course it will not increase indefinitely.

The highest annual salary for a high school teacher is limited to the top salary of $8.

Although it is relatively low, think about it from another perspective. Teachers have 3 to 4 months of paid vacation every year. Although the salary may be lower during the vacation time, you can use this time to travel!

Isn't it great? "

“Also, Portwater High School used to be a private high school, but because the school director suffered a setback on Wall Street, the school was taken over by a bank and has now become a public high school.

Therefore, Portelot High School has dormitories, not just for students, but for teachers as well!

If you agree, you will have accommodation on campus.

I know that renting a decent apartment in Los Angeles costs two to three thousand dollars.

That saves another bit of money, doesn't it?

Also, you are holding a temporary green card now?
Moreover, the job offer as a teaching teacher at Portwater High School will be a great help in getting a permanent green card!
After all, the position of a public high school teacher is very important in the approval of green cards for talent introduction!

No?
If necessary, I, the two vice principals, and Portwater High School can sponsor your job, which will speed up the approval process.”

Now Chen Yaozu could see that old lady Wude was not joking, but was seriously discussing with him the salary of being a teacher at Portwater High School.

But Olivia was a little anxious. She was extremely reluctant for Chen Yaozu to accept the invitation of this job.

Just as Ms. Victoria Wood said, if Chen Yaozu really agreed to be a teacher at Portwater High School, then with the school's guarantee, he would most likely meet the evidence requirements for the approval of the green card for the introduction of special talents.

In other words, the importance of one's own family will be reduced, and even dispensable.

After all, Chen Yaozu faked the marriage just to get a green card. It was all fake and there were risks.

After all, not every married American can get a green card for their significant other, and the Immigration Service is not full of idiots.

In other words, Chen Yaozu still faces the risk of failure.

But if you become a teacher, the success rate will be greatly improved. Even if you cannot pass it now, the green card can be approved in half a year or a year.

So she looked at her cheap son-in-law nervously, waiting for his decision.

Because the crisis in their family has not been resolved yet, and the obstacles for her to find a job are still great. If Chen Yaozu no longer needs her, then she will lose everything that can be maintained by his 3000 monthly salary.

Chen Yaozu didn’t think that much.

He is not stupid. He knows exactly what abilities and capabilities he has.

What does he teach as a teacher?
He knew that the old lady in front of him valued his ability to exorcise demons, but what abilities did he have?

It means knowing what this thing is and then using something to subdue it. It itself has no magic power or super powers.

I can’t teach people, and I can’t teach this! So, forget about being a teacher.

There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. You are useful now and people want you to be their teacher. But later on, if they don’t get what they want, I don’t know what to do with you!

So he shook his head: “I’m sorry, Ms. Wood, I still choose to refuse.

Although the prospect of being a teacher is good, especially for someone like me who holds a temporary green card, this job opportunity is very precious.

But I don't think I'm qualified for the position of teacher.

very sorry!
Because I really don’t know what I can teach my students as a teacher!”

In fact, if it were someone else, they might have let him go.

But since she was young, Ms. Wood has had a desire to explore and learn, and to understand the unknown, which is much stronger than that of ordinary people.

Now that she has the opportunity to come into contact with another kind of knowledge and another world, how could she let it go?
She had already decided what kind of teacher Chen Yaozu should be: "Physical education!
Yes, physical education, you can teach physical education.

Since Portwater High School was newly transferred here not long ago, there is still a vacancy for physical education teachers.

There are professional school team coaches in basketball, football, and boxing, so you don't need to be too proficient in them. As long as you understand the rules and know a little bit, you can teach the classes on a regular basis.

You can have your own major course, such as Chinese kongfu, which should be the strong point of you Orientals! ”

Orientals' strengths?

Even the Orientals themselves didn't believe this, and Chen Yaozu felt like he didn't know what to say.

But it is impossible to say that the job of a high school teacher has no temptation for him.

As a Run person, he knew very well how much the Run people could earn per month after coming to America with so much hardship.
If it was two years ago, there were fewer people coming here, and it wasn't as rampant as it is now.

At that time, if people worked as dishwashers in Chinese restaurants, they could earn $3000 a month before tax if they were lucky.

But it is generally around US$2600 or US$2800.

But there are too many people coming here now, 2800 US dollars?

Don't even think about it. 1800 US dollars are good enough. I heard that they have already started distributing RMB in New York. 6000 to 8000 RMB can be directly sent through Weixin.

This is it, don’t think it’s cheap!

If you don't want to do it, there are people who are willing to do it. The Mexican salary has been reduced to 800 US dollars.

Orientals can't compete with Mexicans working in the kitchen because they are really dedicated to their work.

Even if it's only $800 it's much better than the average $300 you can find working in Mexico.

What if you can't find a job?

So Mexicans are very hardworking and they work really hard. Oriental people can’t compete with them. If they really have the spirit of enduring hardship, they can live a good life in China!

So, the annual salary before tax is 45000, and the monthly salary is about 4200. During holidays, the salary is a little lower, about 3000.

After deducting taxes, this monthly salary is still around 2,700 or 2,800 yuan, which is actually much more than many Americans earn.

However, he looked back at his cheap mother-in-law and realized that he still had to give her 3000 US dollars every month!
Audrey didn't notice her mother's ugly face. She pulled Chen Yaozu's hand excitedly and said, "That's great. This way I won't be scared when I come back to class!"
