With training centers dead and the borders open, 30K is a stretch unless you mean before tax Comment from : @BenJones1127 |

My wife is Chinese, we currently live in the uk (I’m a UK native), however her family are keen for us to relocate, they miss seeing our children grow brbrShe has asked me to look at teaching opportunities in China, I am not a teacher by trade, I’m an IT guy, so I started wondering if this life is right for me This video was really informative, I don’t know if I’m any closer to saying ‘yeah, leats do it’ but I do feel like you offered some good insight Comment from : @MrColin780 |

In terms of landing jobs, i have a subject matter offer at a university in Shanghai, it's in a suburb, so cost of living is lower, but pay is average Rent flight and healthcare are included Does it make sense to take it even though pay is closer to 15000 rmb per month, and just start out there? Comment from : @Catalonia |
|
|
I was offered 17k but after tax and rent I was only going to get 10k Comment from : @pdeneke |
|
|
What should I expect pay wise with no work experience? Comment from : @cabitsuchild9700 |
|
|
at 8:20 when you speak about salaries, are you talking about pre or post tax? Comment from : @jinjurbreadman |

Yes, I heard that foreign piano teachers make a lot of money in ChinabrI believe that, for the development of China, professionals should work in fields related to their majors Comment from : @InspectorA-r2e |

Great vid Comment from : @keganbennett6582 |

yk what?brnice one, you got a good chinese name to make you strong hehebrbrbtw, thanks for using traditional chinese XD Comment from : @Braveplantt |
|
|
I would highly recommend that you take this with a pinch of salt I am an IGCSE and A Level English teacher - their message about teaching English in international school is not accuratebrbrThe international schools often do have active links with UK schools - mine does, and we work with them from curriculum to deliverybrbrThis sounds to me like language ESL teachers with little experience of top flight international schools Comment from : @Cheesecakejibs |

What is the Dress Code for University teachers? I am guessing that long sleeve or short sleeve button ups with khaki pants are fine? Obviously shorts, hoodie sweatshirts, flip flop etc are probably not acceptable Comment from : @stevetheteacher4947 |

Hey there! We're a laid-back family in Beijing excited to welcome an awesome English guide to join our adventures and help our kid dive into the wonders of language I'm a researcher in environmental science, and my husband is a cool engineer Fun fact – I did my PhD in Canada, so we've got a bit of Canadian flair in the mix! We're not just looking for a traditional teacher; we're hoping to find a mentor willing to bring joy to our child's learning journey Imagine 1-2 lively meetups each week, mainly outdoors—perhaps playing in the park, going on adventures, and more We are flexible about locations, activities, time scheduling; our journey depends on the connection between the guide and our child We're looking for someone who adores kids and has a genuine love for kids, and living in the northwest (close to our home) is definitely a bonus Besides, we also consider online learning Of course, compensation will be provided If this resonates with you, drop us an email at 78293518@qqcom Let's embark on this enriching learning adventure together Comment from : @hannahliu-ro1me |

|

This is so helpful, thanks so much guys Most of the adverts in the uk are for international or training schools Can you offer any advice on finding a private school job? Is it best to turn up in china and find a job or find a job in the uk? Also on daves esl cafe today, thete are not many jobs offering 30k Have saleries gone down? Comment from : @pippajennings5856 |

Great video! Very informational about the different types of teaching opportunities and their salaries Comment from : @pranalight76 |
|
|
I'm curious since this is the first video of yours I've seen Clearly you (used to) have an Australian accent, but why is it turning American? Your oral English is rhotic It's the case for both you and the interviewee, more noticeable with you though Comment from : @senzikal |
|
|
Hi! Im thinking of moving to China to teach Spanish I hope it works!! Comment from : @Mike-mo1gq |
|
|
Do you also need to speak Chinese for these teaching English occupations? Comment from : @TeslaSoCal |
|
|
The golden years of being a teacher in China are long gone Glad I was there when it was amazing! Comment from : @Charlie-phlezk |
|
|
Absolutely agree with what you have mentioned I am going to a small city in Henan to work for the university as a Teacher of Russian and English as a foreign language but the salary will be 10K only Comment from : @learnandtravelannushka |
|
|
Kindly make more videos like this Highly Appreciated ❤️ Comment from : @AliVAinChina |
|
|
Very Informative!! Quick clarification on international schools: most schools have a fixed working schedule, does not require working on the weekends and gives you traditional holidays off( Summer, Winter, etc) Comment from : @Sherise81 |
|
|
Great video about teaching, so useful & informative I'm a teacher myself and I appreciate it THANKS Comment from : @themediterraneanguy |

Do you have to speak mandarin just a little bit? Comment from : @Coglitics |

The student needs to develop his or her own individual learning system adapted to your daily routine, area of activity, rhythm of life, interests, etc First of all, you need to understand what problems are preventing you from learning a foreign language effectively There is a lot of good material for learning a language on the Internet, but many people don't know how to use it as effectively as possible However, the practice of Yuriy Ivantsiv "Polyglot Notes Practical tips for learning foreign language" will help you structure and organize your individual language learning process, allow you to find a method of language learning that will be interesting and unencumbered Also, subscribe to this channel, because here the author puts very useful videos on learning a language! Thank the author of the channel for the great work in the creation of training videos! Comment from : @matildawolfram4687 |

Currently working as an English teacher at a private academy (kindergarten) in South Korea Not the best experience given it’s a brand new school and very unorganized After this contract, with 1 year experience teaching could I expect 30,000 in China? I’m native English from the US It sounds like a much better deal than what I have now Comment from : @GmodForDays |
|
|
Couldnt you have put that money in usd lol Comment from : @scottpilgram696 |
|
|
Ya we wanna teach eanglish because nost of us dont want to be teachers at all, its just an way in to a country you have no skills for Comment from : @scottpilgram696 |
|

Ive been in China for 5 years I agree training centers are only a good option if you have no teaching experience You'll most likely be working long hours and on weekends Also agree with international schools - work you very hard Now I work at a UK university in China, much better that a Chinese University (which was described in the video ) The salary at proper UK university the salary is good (around 20 - 30k a month) This has been the best for me but it is teaching EAP (English for academic purposes) not EFL (English as a Foreign Language) Quite different If you can get a Trinity Certificate in Teaching English for Academic Purposes (TEAP) your opportunities will open up a lot Comment from : @wiserkindercalmer6530 |
|

As someone who also worked in a training center and an international school, I'd like to point out two things that were incorrect First, training centers do provide PTO by contract However, if you don't negotiate for it, that's on you Second, as per the notion that international school's don't give a lot of time off, that's utterly not true They give months of time off (Ex summer and winter break) which is paid (again, if you didn't negotiate for it, that's on you) Will you be working during that time preparing lessons for the next term? Sure, but how is that different from any school around the world? Comment from : @davidalexanderarnavat |

Oh forgot to mention if you’re white Haha Comment from : @Woodardray |
|
|
You get 2 weeks off That's a good time Comment from : @BlakeHaskins-tv8fj |

I'm moving to China real soon and this video has helped me a lot to deal with anxiety haha, I will be working as an Spanish teacher in a University, so thanks for the video! Comment from : @RioR0bin |
|
|
Wow thank u! Comment from : @MylesGmail |
|
|
Thank you for an informative video, recruiters aren’t offering 30k at the moment though, someone told me I am worth 10-13k Comment from : @MpumiNdhlovu |
|
|
Why bother teaching them English if they despise the West? Comment from : @nr655321 |
|
|
Dude, love your video, but clearly, he does know what he is talking about when it comes to teaching at International schools You need a teacher's licence to start off like the iPGCE he mentioned We are only working only 188 days a year, and we get 2000usd travel allowance per year And if you are a real teacher, teacher at a Chinese school will never help you going forward International schools, the real once with foreign kids are the way to go, stay away from bilingual schools Also, my salary goes up every year Comment from : @johannhartzenberg6277 |
|
|
Hi :) can you tell us what is the situation like for non-native teachers? Comment from : @jelenamilosevic9222 |
|
|
does he have a contact? Comment from : @Row2nd |
|
|
I’ve been in China since 2015, in an international private school, weekends off, good salary, nothing quite like what beers mentioned here But there are horror stories I can share I’ve had some time in a training center, that’s a slog but good money There are still many opportunities in China, if you get a chance to come here, grab it! Comment from : @clivekingshott4323 |

|
Public schools are missing!? Comment from : @evebeebee |
|
|
The video's I enjoy most are the ones speaking Chinese with a native speaker Comment from : @dahur |
|
|
It’s all about supply and demand Now that China is open, there might be more competition that may potentially drive the teacher wages lower Comment from : @penname |
|
|
coming to China this year in September ( Changzhou) Comment from : @madefresh4044 |
|
|
what website can i find these private schools at? Comment from : @ztreddedb2949 |
|
|
Hello!Andre Could you share some videos of your full teaching lesson in the future?I want to learn 地道的课堂英语。哈哈哈brThanks a lot Comment from : @Rachel张儒秋 |
|
|
Listening to these 2 talk shamelessly about how much $$$$ they can make out of China is sad China should be careful to accept only quality foreign teachers who have a passion for their profession and who are sincerely interested in China and Chinese culture China should not accept any 🤑🤑🤑 Comment from : @chew5461 |
|
|
If conditions are SO BAD, you can ALWAYS leave the country! I am very sure China DID NOT FORCE you to stay 11 years Many of the so called foreign "teachers" do not seem impressive from the way the speak and from the videos they produce on Youtube Seems like they are there for the easy money This is sad and NOT good for China Comment from : @chew5461 |

相信对30k月收入的外籍教师,未来用人企业会对他们提出更高的要求,例如更高的学位证明或相关经验 Comment from : @aisensif5731 |

Hi! I wanna ask how the weather conditions affect your daily life in China? Does it rain a lot or is it mostly cloudy? When I researched about the weather quality, I found out air pollution is an important problem Cheers! Comment from : @KonyaTribun |
|
|
Serious comment … if you’re not white what are your chances of getting a teaching job there? Comment from : @gman007 |
|
|
Very informative video! I’m halfway through completing a bachelors in TESL and was planning on teaching at an international school when I come China I’ll need to weight my options carefully now after learning some of the cons Comment from : @kellandaniel5581 |
|
|
false and wrong info given here, search Sabrina in China, Aleese Lightyear, Because I'm Lizzy they are teaching in China right now with plentiful enjoyable holidays Comment from : @youtubetebie7799 |
|
|
All teachers get the whole summer off and there is a winter break around Chinese new yearbrSo it is not true that you work all year long Teachers have more holidays than any other people Comment from : @trisoil |
|
|
This was a really good video, very informative But I have one question I thought private schools and language centers are no longer allowed to operate in China Because of the new law passed about 2 years ago I thought the government said that educational services should not be a private business Can someone help me clarify that?

Great Video as always Adre Thanks to David for sharing some valuable insights brbrI would like to know, brbr1) When you talk Base salary of 30k, does that include those qualified but with no working experience teaching, the first time teachers brbr2) Also, something I haven't come across is, if you're earning 30K before tax as an example, what do you actually take home after tax? brbr3) Lastly, what are the options would you recommend for sending money back to your country? their pros and cons brbrThanks Comment from : @martyzzee3487 |
|
|
You don't need the PGCE but it makes you more competitive Comment from : @SoroushTorkian |
|
|
Great Vid, David seems like a cool dude 😎 Comment from : @studentofphilosophy9251 |
|
|
I found this very informative, thank you So I'm probably going to be teaching at a primary school in Zhongshan in September I would like to know if there are language schools to study Chinese from zero and whether it is possible to study after working hours Also, how common are (weightlifting) gyms in china? Comment from : @ammarseadon6786 |
|
|
Keep up the good work Comment from : @zl6800 |
|
|
30k is quite a high salary to have as a base minimum based on what I am seeing Comment from : @iGeekozoid |
|
|
Good video, I had no idea salaries were that high for teachers in China Comment from : @hey_bebop |
