Do you dream of faraway places and want to use your TEFL skills to experience adventure in a different country? With new opportunities to learn a new language? China offers all the above, environmentally the landscape is vast and diverse as the cities that are built in and around the country itself. China enjoys the commercial advantages of all the western main cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. In contrast, China also celebrates her natural culture and environment in cities that are not so exploited by capitalism. It’s worthwhile exploring.
Pioneer & Beyond are here to help. We have a range of job positions available across many cities in China. You may ask, do I need to speak Mandarin to teach in China? The answer is no; you do not need to. In school, you will have Chinese assistants who will help you to communicate with students. In daily life, most of the young generation of Chinese can speak English. They may not speak perfect English, but it is enough for basic communication.
