Description

By participating in the Frontier China Paid Teaching Programme you'll be helping your students improve their level of English and bringing a fresh approach to teaching styles and lesson types.

Your placement in China starts with 4 weeks intense Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) training in Yangshuo. This will include teacher training and introductions to Chinese culture, language, customs and the opportunity to go on excursions. You will meet students and nearby schools, as well as observing lessons with both Chinese and foreign teachers. You will then have the opportunity to practise teaching with your peers and in the local schools before beginning the placement itself.

Once you have completed and passed the training course you will be issued with a TEFL certificate and you will be guaranteed a placement in a school, receiving a monthly wage relative to the region, and teaching around 20 hours per week. You will be making and implementing your own lesson plans, giving you the perfect opportunity to experience real China, make a difference to future generations, immerse yourself in Chinese culture and make friends for life with your welcoming hosts and the wonderful children.
