Teaching in China is a real delight... work with children who really want to learn and perhaps learn something from them in return...

Our teaching placements take place in a variety of schools and centres around Shanghai - you'll be placed at one school where you'll live and work, really becoming a part of the community.You don't need any qualifications to participate in a teaching placement in China - just to be fluent in English and have a desire to learn about a new culture and give something back in return.

"I had a lot of fun teaching and found it really rewarding, one of the best things that I have ever decided to do" Lina Joshi on her teaching placement in China

If you’re unsure about which of these options would be best for you, just call the office on 01903 502595 and ask to speak to the China Co-Ordinator.

  • TEACHING IN SHANGHAI CITY
    Teach English in the heart of China's most exciting city - a unique opportunity to experience the famous Shanghai-nese lifestyle while working among its' people.

Or, you can work with secondary aged children aged up to 18, who are busy studying for their exams. If you have specific skills, you can also choose from a variety of subjects which you can teach alongside English, such as arts & crafts, music, science or maths.

Nervous about teaching? As one volunteer recalls, although it is natural to be nervous initially, you will soon begin to find teaching second nature: "The teaching was brilliant, the students were so interested and really funny, and they were always eager and attentive. I was very nervous but then after a few lessons it was a piece of cake and the students helped me to relax"
