Teach in China
China is the world’s most populous country with a population of over 1.3 billion, the majority of whom identify as Han Chinese. However there are 56 recognised nationalities in China, each with its own traditions, language, and culture. Teaching abroad in China is an attractive option for foreigners. Rapid modernisation over the last 3 decades has brought huge growth and prosperity to China’s cities, particularly those along the East coast such as Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen. Major cities in China are home to a large and growing number of international schools. As a result it is relatively easy for English speakers to find teaching jobs in China among the many British, IB, American, and Canadian international schools. Most teaching jobs in China international schools offer housing and other benefits as well as an attractive salary. The majority of international schools in China can be found in cities and built up areas such as Chengdu, Chenshan, Chongqing, Dalian, Dongguan, Foshan, Guangdong, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Jinan, Kunming, Nanjing, Ningbo, Qingdao, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Sichuan, Suzhou, Tianjin, Wuhan, Xiamen, Xi’an, Yangzhou, Zhejiang and Zhuhai.

How to Find Teaching Jobs in China International Schools
Most international schools in China have adopted the Western academic calendar. Instead of a winter break starting in December, some schools will have a long break at Chinese New Year (or Spring Festival), between January February. There will often be two intakes for hiring, one in September and another one in February. The hiring process for international school jobs in China will start in October or November the previous year. Not all positions are open to expats and many management and support roles are will be filled locally. The most commonly posted vacancies for expats include early years, primary, and secondary teaching openings, principal and coordinator positions, SEN and learning support roles, as well school counsellor and teacher librarian vacancies. Whilst the language of instruction in most international schools in China will be English, there are also plenty of opportunities to teach Spanish in China. A teacher’s licence, PGCE, QTS or similar is normally required for teaching jobs in China international schools.
