Most of the respondents' age was between 25 and 30 years old, and most respondents were married. Most of the respondents own master's degrees, and most of their income is between 3000-5000 RMB every month. The results showed that there is a significant relationship between expectation, job challenge, and learning opportunity with overall job satisfaction. And Most respondents prefer teaching more than research. For the managers of Chinese education groups, they need to care about the mind of teachers; increasing job satisfaction can reduce the turnover rate of those education groups, improve their teaching and research ability, and then increase reputation. In addition, managers of education groups need to care about the payment of teachers, and sometimes, they also can provide some challenging jobs and learning opportunities to those teachers.
