Thank you all for your answers...
ShiningAmy_gurl, the school´s name is Beijing Huijia Private School, it doesn´t seem as an overnight school and they offer to sponsor the certificate and the z-visa. But it is true, it seems we are locked in the dorms at night.

Hello. I have a very good friend (she's Brittish) and she is currently living in China. I just asked her your questions, and this is her answer. Hope you find it useful:

"7,000 is enough to live off but it isnt very much! Having said that i was paid 5,000 rmb in local curency and i usually went over it - but i was paid 2,000 USD into my English account too. It depends on what sort of quality of living you want. It definitely would not be enough to save but everything is quite cheap so it may be alright. Beijing is lovely too. As for cats I know 2 people who took their cats to china so it should be ok.

If your friend needs any further help i do know a friend of a friend who lives in Beijing. Now is the time to go as well with the olypics around the corner. It would be well worth going even if the money is not great.xx "

For me, the answer looks promising. And the olympics...!!! :D
Good luck in your decision.

Yes, it will be enough. Beijing and Shanghai are more expensive then other areas of china, but you'll still have enough money to live comfortably. I wouldn't try to bring a pet there though. Fast food type meals are about 30 rmb or sit down 5 course meals for a family are about 300rmb.

Think before you do it!!!!!!!!!! 7,000rmb in Beijing is a joke. I make 7,000rmb in Tianjin and that's good but Beijing has a higher standard of living and is more expensive. Also do not go for dorms unless you want to be bothered after class by students and living by dorm rules. As for food...well you're probably not going to want to eat there once you taste the food. Find a nice school that offers an apartment (single or double) off campus. Why...I learned the hard way, and got locked in every night at 10pm and wasn't allowed out! Or in! The pay also goes by your education and qualifications, the more you have the more they pay. Also see if they pay for your visa and expert certificate (also make sure they give you both...don't let anyone keep them for you). Beware of short time schools...they either want you to teach on an L visa or business visa, they make you pay for anything, or won't let you talk to other teachers at the school first. I call them short time schools because some schools disappear during the night taking your pay with them. Also make them pay for ALL medical expenses at a real hospital and will ensure that someone goes with you.

If you give the name of the school I can give more information. Also you might want to try Dave's Cafe (china section) or search the name of the school on line to see if any other teachers had problems there.

Being could be the capital of China and also its political, economic, and cultural middle and you've the chance to see it today, look with hotelbye . Beijing is one of the most visited towns in the world. Every year, millions of guests come to Beijing to see the great blend of old and new. Beijing is a city for many seasons. You are able to always discover anything for you no real matter what time you're in Beijing and whatsoever your pursuits are. It takes some time to take pleasure from everything that Beijing Town has to offer but positively you cannot eliminate the opportunity to see Tiananmen Square. Positioned in the center of Beijing, Tiananmen Square is the website for massive parades and rallies and the biggest square of this type in the world.

I was offered a job in Beijing, is 7,000 RMB enough to live by?

Yes, that is a LOT of money in Beijing. The average college grad can expect to earn about 2-3000 a month in the first year after school. As long as you're not one of those expats who always hangs out in westerner traps, you'll have more cash than you know what to do with.

I'm not sure how you spend your money so i would not say it's enough or not. But i can provide you several references. A good freshly graduated undergrad from a very good university in China would have a starting pay of 4000RMB per month. A few of the undergrads or masters who are doing financial works can have a starting pay like 10,000RMB per month. But most undergrads would end up having 2000RMB-3000RMB starting pay.
For the cats, you can have your pet in beijing. But i think the transportation would be troublesome. You'd better check with the imigration.

it may be a struggle for you depending on how thrifty you can live and where you shop and eat. you are lucky that a dorm and food are provided , and I imagine you could manage on 1250 yuan per week
the average wage is much lower than this in Beijing and if you use your head, you will get by,
just be sure to make sure you have the money to pay for your trip home just in case things don't work out
I have no idea about quarantine restrictions for animals to get into china, but if their visa conditions for humans are anything to go by, it may be pretty difficult
take care and hope it all works out for you

Well, it's not enough to live comfortably. If you needn't cover the rent(1000-1500RMB), the lunch(15RMB), the electricity(100RMB), the Internet access fee(60RMB), it's ok. Or you can just live a life of ordinary level. By the way, Both Hangzhou and Dalian are best cities in China for living. Hangzhou is called the earthly paradise. Also, the living cost is higher than the middle-sized countries.

i searched google and 7,000 RMB, aka Chinese Yuan is only 921.403 dollars...So if everything is really cheap in Beijing, go for it, but don't expect to come back to the States and be rich.
