Teaching Positions Available in China
There has never been a better time to teach in China. The industry as a whole is going through a boom and the potential for growth is unlimited. With events such as the 2008 Olympics in Beijing and the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai, Chinese people of all ages are very keen to learn English as the country continues to open up to the west. Of particular importance to the Chinese is the development of their children’s education and their English and therefore demand for lessons is high.
The majority of EFL teaching is centred in the major cities, where demand is high due to the growing middle class. However the rest of China is slowly catching up and opportunities to teach in more 'rural' areas are increasing.
Positions range from young learner teaching in public schools or private language schools through to adult only teaching positions in most major cities including Shanghai and Beijing.
