2. Many people have dreams of teaching abroad, but
they never get to transform their dreams into reality.
Sometimes there is a common misconception that
getting work abroad is difficult. Although some
formalities are required for you to secure a job
abroad, it should be relatively easy.

3. Requirements

4. It is critical for every interested candidate to find all
the necessary documents. An excellent way to know
what is required is to go through all the details of
each job you are interested in. Typically, the employer
will include some things they expect the applicant to
have. This will enable you to know exactly what you
need, and it will put you in a better position where
you stand a chance of getting the teaching job.

5. Experience

6. In most cases, however, you will find that a lot of
employers do not focus a lot on the number of years
of experience of the candidate. What they focus on
are the person’s credentials which give them
information on whether or not the applicant can do
the job as perfected.

7. Salary

8. Most people are afraid of leaving their secure salary
jobs and going for the unknown although the best
things are always the ones that require the greatest
risks. If you are looking for a teaching job in China,
however, this is something that you do not to worry
about. China is a place where the salaries given to
working China residents and foreigners are excellent.

9. Knowing Chinese

10. Many people assume that to work in China; you need
to be fluent in the language as well. This is however
not the case. If you are teaching English in China, your
employer will only require you to be fluent and able
to teach that language. Whether or not you speak
Chinese is therefore not a requirement if you want an
English teaching job.

11. Choice of Teaching

12. It is, therefore, important for you to consider all these
aspects before you apply for a job. Look for a job that
has all the aspects you are good at and the ones you
are looking for. This is important because it gives you
a higher chance of getting a job you will enjoy.

13. TEFL Certificate

14. A lot of people in search of teaching jobs in China are
reluctant to apply for these jobs because they do not
want to go through TEFL certification. This is probably
because it can take some time and because many
people do not believe it is important. This is however
not the case. TEFL Certification is vital and is a must
have if you are looking to teach abroad.
