What to expect from working in China as an esl teacher for the first time. School differences and challenges #southafricanyoutuber #career #eslteachers #china
Yep they are one of the few that survived their shut down due to policy changes. Maybe they will pick up again soon. I see kids attending in one I know around where I live. But ke they should be your last option nje
Hmmmm not easy to decide when it comes to training centers ngeke 😂😂😂😂😂, in as much as they help you mara yoh yivale mfana 🤣, Sibonge nge video weMshengu. I think mna I will go for primary yazi or kindergarten. 👍🏾 Kancane kancane senginayo idea yezinto engizobhekana nazo.
Jeh training centers are a no go nje now saba lucky thina esafika esa ryt. Primary and high school is chilled since you just teaching older kids. Chinese in general are goal driven from a young age. It rare to have kids that are just unhandable in class. Most take school serious and their parents invest in their education so teaching becomes smooth.
Thanks for this great video. Can you kindly talk about English accents? Are there any preferred accents in China? Obviously people (teachers)from other parts of Africa other than South Africa do speak with different accents. Thank you.
Only South Africa is allowed to teach in China from Africa. Schools do prefer usa or uk accent. As a South African our accent lies closer to uk. But more slower and clear. But they fancy American English mostly here
I’ve been applying like crazy, but no interview yet. Do you think the interview process start December or late Jan? I also got a PCC that was 6 month old in August how long is a PCC normally valid for?
My documents are at Dirco but i want to relocate with a child🙈 please investigate that side for types of schools people work for when they have a dependent
Go for international schools, or kinder or primary depending how old is your child. So get a school that will give you free education for your child while you work. So training centers are a no go for you.
Hi Buti'Omdala My documents are back from DIRCO I am applying and three recruiters asked me to send copies of my authenticated documents just as proof that I have them one is from totally teach and said it's okay if I want to hide any personal information. What's your take on this? Is it safe to send scanned copies of my documents to recruiters?
Hide the infor nje and you good. They only want to work with those they know everything is ready. Just hide all the numbers and important certificate numbers.
Hello, Mfana thank you for your advice . We do appreciate it. Do you have a reputable recruiter? I have noticed that most agents are not very reluctant to employ South Africans. Am I wrong here? Or am I looking in the wrong directions. I have a Teachers Dipl. B.Ed honors + Masters currently. Plus experience teaching in South Africa and Asia. But thus far no interviews. Uhh..Maybe its my age hahahhaha
Things are not good lately with jobs this side. The intake has dropped and salaries are dropping too. So every opportunity that come first just try to make the best of it as one can sit 3 months now with no interviews. The best agencies are “totally teach on LinkedIn “ I have made a vid before and shared some contacts for those on wechat but still, getting jobs here now is getting harder bit by bit.
Hi Hows recism eChina.. i hold a bEd degree intermediate phase want to go to public school. Do u recommend private or public school. Ngyabonga sazophendula
K12 is an education system used in various countries more like grade 1-12 schools. Some schools just have kindergarten which have pre k, k1- k3. Than after k3 they go to grade 1,,, it similar to sa just that we call it grade
China does not specify age limit. Kuba iskole nje esishoyo if siyabafuna abadala or not. Ezinye ziyasho if they don’t want teachers under 23… so umabengasho nje age limit you can apply.
