I'm speaking as a person who makes between 100-300USD every single day, I feel too lazy to go outside if I make less. It's a fact of life here. Often people who come from outside of China end up being scammed on their first contract because they don't realize what their salary should be.
The absolute minimum you should be making teaching English is 150RMB/hour. That translates to about 25USD. It would be unusual to teach less than 5 hours in a day (unless you really wanted), and this salary is often taxed at next to nothing. Because of my experience I make closer to 300/hour. I don't know a single person who makes less than 150/hr.
**edit: university jobs are often horrible in China. You're given no curriculum, have massive classes, and are grossly underpaid. They best money is in private schools preparing students to go abroad, or language centers.
