<\/a><\/p>\n China offers a diverse array of school options for prospective teachers, making it essential to conduct research to identify the best fit for your lifestyle, salary expectations, and time-off preferences. Each type of school comes with its own set of trade-offs to consider. For instance, if a higher salary is a priority, you might explore opportunities in international schools, albeit with potentially longer working hours. On the other hand, if a better work-life balance is your preference, universities with fewer working hours and lower salaries could be a suitable choice.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/a><\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.4.8″ custom_margin=”|auto|-230px|auto||” custom_padding=”4px|||||”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.4.8″][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.6.6″]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n [\/et_pb_code][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.4.8″ custom_padding=”3px||3px|||”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.4.8″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.4.8″ text_font=”Lato||||||||” text_text_color=”#606262″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1.4em”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n China offers some of the highest-paid overseas teaching jobs in the world.

Training schools generally require you to teach 20 hours, and typically pay between 12,000-25,000 RMB. At kindergartens and preschools, you can expect a similar number of teaching hours. Though the teaching hours at public and international schools are not much different, they require more class preparation time and are stricter on office hours.<\/p>\n Many schools provide teachers with housing and reimburse for airfare. In first-tier cities, some schools provide a stipend instead or simply pay a higher salary. Health & accident insurance is always included, though the terms might vary by school.

Fueled by the increasing spending power of the rising middle class, millions of families can now afford to enroll their children in schools with native English-speaking teachers. This demand extends across the entire country, including lesser-known cities, creating a substantial need for teachers, particularly ESL teachers.<\/a><\/p>\n It’s essential to recognize that teaching is a service, and China’s growing economy places an ever-expanding demand on the service sector. For teachers, this translates to a continuous rise in demand, outpacing the growth in supply. Consequently, teachers who choose to work in China can expect to earn a lucrative income.<\/p>\n Presently, the fastest-growing segment of education jobs in China is at the professional level. There is a rising demand for instructors experienced in various curriculums such as U.S.\/AP, local, British National, and internationally accredited programs like International Baccalaureate (IB). This demand continues to escalate each year. On the flip side, the demand for recent university graduates and less experienced ESL teachers consistently surpasses the available supply.<\/p>\n Whether you’re a beginner teacher or a seasoned professional, Teaching Nomad is dedicated to finding a position that aligns with your needs.<\/p>\n Jobs in China<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_cta][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.5.1″ background_image=”https:\/\/teachingnomad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Empty-classroom.png” height=”203px” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.4.8″ custom_padding=”80px||80px||false|false” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.4.8″ custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.4.8″][et_pb_cta title=”Curriculum used in China” button_text=”Click Here” _builder_version=”4.6.6″ header_font=”Lato|900|||||||” header_text_color=”#1d1f20″ header_font_size=”34px” header_line_height=”1.2em” body_font=”Lato||||||||” body_text_align=”left” body_text_color=”#606262″ body_font_size=”16px” body_line_height=”1.4em” background_enable_color=”off” background_layout=”light” custom_margin=”||50px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false”]<\/p>\n There are many different types of schools in China, and they use a variety of different curriculums.

In addition, it incorporates elements of morality, ethics, and, prominently, the Chinese language. Traditionally, Chinese instruction has followed a lecture and testing-oriented approach. While some schools are transitioning to more student-centered instruction, testing remains a primary focus. This emphasis is particularly evident in the notorious GaoKao \u9ad8\u8003, a crucial examination determining entrance into higher education institutes.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”National Curriculum for England” _builder_version=”4.6.6″]<\/p>\n \u00a0The National Curriculum of England serves as the established set of standards applied throughout England & Wales, ensuring a uniform learning experience for all students as they progress through schooling. Structured into four mandatory key stages spanning ages 5 to 16, with an optional key stage 5 for ages 17 & 18 (years\/grades 12 & 13), often referred to as college in the British context, this curriculum is commonly adopted by international schools.<\/p>\n Defining the foundational elements of learning, the curriculum outlines the subjects, knowledge, skills, and developmental milestones associated with each subject. It also establishes the expected proficiency levels for students in each subject and outlines the assessment methods. Within this framework, schools have the flexibility to plan and organize lessons according to their discretion.<\/p>\n Accreditation for the National Curriculum of England is directly granted by the UK Department of Education.

While Shanghai attracts many due to its international reputation, teaching in tier 3 cities offers a more off-the-grid adventure, providing a full immersion experience with limited access to imported goods and fewer English speakers.<\/p>\n Teaching Nomad presents opportunities in all three city types, spanning from Harbin in the north near the Russian border to Hainan island in the South China Sea and Chengdu<\/a> in Sichuan province to the west. Although the majority of our schools are in tier 1 and tier 2 cities, we also offer exciting opportunities in tier 3 cities for those seeking a real adventure.<\/p>\nHere’s how experience & qualifications can affect your earning potential:<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n
