~~ My Story ~~
~ I've lived in China for over 4 years teaching English, so I thought it's about time I shared my life with you guys!
~ I came to China in 2017 and lived in Chongqing for two years - a place I completely fell in love with and firmly consider to be my Chinese home.
~ I made the move to Shanghai in 2019 to seek better job opportunities and experience.
~ I now work in one of the best Public High schools in Shanghai in their international department teaching IB English and ESL.
~ I love my job and I love teaching!
Thank you to everyone who's expressed concern over my personal information, I have definitely learnt a lesson... in the next videos I upload, I'll definitely be super cautious of these things! 😄
Alipay payment QR codes are only active for one minute and the payment password has since been changed 😅
“胡同” is a Northern term in China, mostly used in cities like Beijing or those in any northeastern provinces. “弄堂(lòng tang)” is the correct term in Shanghai. Yes, 弄=nòng, but this is the only place it's read as "lòng", as a special term in Shanghai. If you would like to learn more of our history, by any chance, you'll find more interesting facts in our culture. Have fun.
Yup. Shanghai is really a bikers paradise, I visited once and absolutely loved it
Your students are so lucky to have you as their teacher! And its a beautiful and peaceful school. Hope you have got a strong social fabric in Shanghai to support you.
You should make more frequent videos.I really enjoyed this one, subbed
Thanks Steve, appreciate your support...2022 will bring more frequent videos for sure!
Oh, the lunch is organic and delicious. ❤ I miss my Thailand teacher experience. Those were the days. 😊 Thank you for uploading and showing how living and working in China really is in real life as an expat. Bless you, bless the students, and bless China. Nothing but ONE Love. 🥰🙏🌈✨️💖
Chef Jenna, this meal looked delish! Thanks for giving us a glimpse into Shanghai life!

I LOVE THIS VIDEO! 🙌 so chill and very Shanghainese 🧚♀️

Love the way you live and work in Shanghai, subscribed !
Hi Jenna, I can see that you have settled down quite well. I used to live in London (years ago) for 9 years and I always cherish my time there as I was able to immerse in the culture and everything else. It has definitely broadens my horizon and make me a better person. I wish I could travel to China as I had not been there for more than 5 years already.
Hope to get videos from you atleast weekly.
This was really enjoyable 😆😆

Hi Jenna! Thanks for the video. I've been to that import store in Shanghai a few years back. Can you remind me where is it located? I want to go there again.

Happy 2022 Annie! 新年快乐！
Thank you for this great video 🙏🙏

well, good to know your personal payment password had changed, it was very clear to see in your video.
Such a cool house to live! Does it get cold in winter? Or maybe you're about to find out...
Hahah! I moved in here last December! I live in the top floor apartment, but to be honest, they've completely renovated it, so it's double glazed...I think I can deal with it.
💯
Very interesting video
Thank you so much!
I love this! I miss your face!
hopefully you can see it here more often from now on haha!
Also, beat selection is 🔥
抽空学做中国菜，工作生活也很规律，是一个好姑娘。
You need to be more careful about your digital security. Don’t record the QR code for payment and pin entry sequence when paying.
Nice video I subscribe 😊❤️
Thank you so much for the support, it means so much!
Hello, your video appeared in my feed probably because I enjoy life in China content, I just noticed this is a year old so I will ask if you are still in China and will you be making more videos?
Oh, you live in my area
Just noticed that you are teaching in my high school. Lol.
真正的有烟火气的上海👍👍👍👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹市西中学是重点中学
coming from Lightyear's channel. Nice video! Girl you showed your password at 9:10.... you need to change it asap
Haha actually it was my boyfriend’s password 😂 😬
@@Welshtravelled
Should use fingerprint instead, if it has that function.
like your video, thanks. may i ask , with your income in shanghai as a teacher, are you able to maintain your living standard as you have in your home country?
Wales go go go, Cardiff go go go
I liked your video. You should do them regularly
That's the plan! I had a bit of a break recently - but I still recorded some footage...a new video is coming very soon...watch this space!
@@Welshtravelled yes 🙌🏾
I love her school lol are they hiring!
Can you guide me ❤, how can I get English teaching job in China as a non native
Hello teacher, would you mind telling what model your watch is? Is it a quartz strap? Not original?
It’s Apple Watch 6, 44 inch with a strap I bought from Taobao- not an original Apple brand watch strap.
How it happened? How did you be English teacher in China i mean that is excellent!! Can u make a video about that please?and can you speak Chinese?
Hi, thanks for your lovely video- I'm doing some research - could you please answer some interview questions for me? If you've willing , let me know😊😊😊
Where is that?
In UK, they will be saying you live in China's slum, and eating dogs and bats. Not like nice Cardiff.
nearly 3000 people know your wechat payment password🤔
i thought yt was blocked in china. how's your 5000 yuan fine?
It's actually not Hu Tong, it's Long Tang (弄堂) or Shi Ku Men (石库门).
市西中学，名校
hi are u becoming a English teacher ever since u come to China？
I came to China to teach English, but I also taught ESL before coming to China! 😄
I hate trying to buy clothes on Taobao
中文很標準
oh also it's period 1 not lesson 1 you obviously sound like you're from gb
knowing me, Id crash my bike into everyone and fall
😂Dorina there have definitely been some near misses! Actually last year I was mid-voice note, riding down one of the bumpiest roads in Shanghai. (Don't worry, I was wearing headphones and my phone was in the phone holder, so it was 100% safe) and I must've ridden over a bump or something and fell over. The best/worst part is I have the whole fall/crash recorded - which my friends love to bring out at parties/when we meet new people 🙃
@@Welshtravelled that is hilarious..well in hindsight! XD that video must be golden. I hope you had a great week thanks for replying. Hopefully I will be teaching there too once I gather the courage.
你好，老外 有没有男朋友啊？
