My company is openning a plant in Shanghai. I have been offered the position to be the plant engineer during the start up. My wife and I are excited about the opportunity. She has an english degree and has taught english and social studies for one year. Are there any opportunities for her to work during the time in Shanghai? Preferably close to American teacher salary. Where can we look for opportunities for her? We are just starting to research and find out about what we need to do to get ready, so any information about Shanghai, what we need to have done before we go would be greatly appreciated. Thank You
