Self-Assessment

• Employee Desirability and Psychosocial Adjustment
  This 20-item two-part test is intended to give you a general idea about how desirable or competitive you will be in the China EFL market as well as help you anticipate how relatively easy or difficult your day-to-day adjustment will be.
• China Foreign Teacher Job Satisfaction
  This 20-item quiz—intended for those who have been teaching English in China for awhile—is based on the work of organizational psychologists and will provide you with a very good idea about how satisfied or not you are in your current job role.
• Narcissistic Tendencies Test
  This quiz is based on the diagnostic criteria for narcissistic personality disorder of the American Psychiatric Association's DSM-IV and is intended to be taken by Western men who suspect their Chinese partners may suffer from NPD.

Surveys

• Foreign Teachers Guide's Reader Survey
  This very brief survey offers an opportunity for readers to anonymously tell us what they liked or not, and to offer suggestions for future revisions of the Guide.
• Foreign Teacher Satisfaction and Retention Survey
  This comprehensive survey is designed to explore variables associated with satisfaction and retention among foreign teachers in China. The project was started in July 2008 and has provided extremely useful information that is then used to document the Guide's findings and conclusions. If you are or were a foreign teacher in China, we strongly encourage you to take a few minutes of your time to complete this survey.
