China Schools- August 2023 jobs

Interview online for over 100 teaching jobs in China

Why teach in China?

China has more international and bilingual schools than any other country in the world. Their need for qualified, academic teachers has never been greater. With salaries that surpass the Middle East - £26,000 - 66,000 with housing, flights and medical insurance on top, and a cost of living that is 50% less than London and Dubai, many teachers are making China their first choice location.

Excellent locations

Shanghai is on China’s central coast and the financial hub of China. A very multicultural and vast city, it started as the major trading port for eastern China and has turned into a modern city complete with the tallest building in China and an efficient, clean metro system. Shanghai is a beautiful and welcoming city that’s easy to live in. A great overview of the city is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jr5BhBxWKT8

Chongqing is probably the largest city you have never heard of. It is located up-river from Shanghai on the Yangtze River and whilst no longer technically part of the Sichuan province, it retains a love of spicy food. Chongqing is set to become the most important city in West China with plans for huge growth. Nearby Three Gorges is a beautiful boat ride away where you can travel down sharp bends alongside huge limestone cliffs. Here’s an informative BBC show about this new mega-city: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8BVivw3TzI

Guangzhou is a modern, green city in the southern area of China, not far from Hong Kong. It's a lively and multicultural city with plenty to do for those who want city life, as well as beautiful green spaces for those who like the country. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZOTr2GXnJk
