The hourly wage of China students working in the UK also depends on the region. Generally speaking, in Scotland, the hourly wage is 5 pounds, which is for jobs with tips. Others may be 1~2 kg. England, if it is in the countryside, is generally similar to Scotland. But in the city, catering is 5~6 kg per hour.
Tips in the service area are all your own (try to go to restaurants opened by local people in Britain, most of which are 7-8 kg in China, but there is no tip). Generally speaking, if you are lucky enough to work four hours a day, the tip is likely to be similar to or even higher than the salary. However, for other jobs, it is about 8 kg in the city.
The rest are in London. The hourly wage in London is hard to say. The catering category is basically around 6~7 kg. If you tip, refer to the article above. If you don't tip, the difference is quite big. A classmate in London said he was a telephone operator, with an hour 1 1 pound.
Generally speaking, although London consumes a lot, if you work, your income will far exceed that of other regions. By contrast, you may earn more money in London besides living expenses.
However, after all, studying in Britain is mainly to get a degree, so students should calculate the time of working, and don't delay their studies because of the last job.
