Working at a public primary school in China is a wonderful opportunity for individuals who are seeking adventure and passionate about teaching.
Discover China through the eyes of your wonderful students. Live and explore a culture that will enrich your life. From cosmopolitan cities to ancient towns steeped in history, few places have as rich a cultural heritage as "the Middle Kingdom". Exploring the whole of China would take more than a lifetime, but to capture the essence of the culture is feasible in a short time.
