Considering An Occupation Change

So I was talking to someone down the hall last night and found out that he got a gig here teaching English to someone. I however was suprised at how much they were paying him because to get a Chinese tutor, they're around 25 kuai an hour, so $3.25 an hour? He however is getting paid around 125 kuai an hour...
Maybe I should looking into teaching English too seeing that I can speak it but it helps to know English phonetics which I doubt 15% of native born speakers know what that even is.

Someone treated our entire class to lunch last week which was awesome because we got to bond more as a class and free lunch...
The food was fantastic and to feed 11 people it was under $100 US
