Hi , there: We are a recriuting agent from China. We recriut oral English teacher for china's middle high school. If only you are a native or close-native English speacker, you are welcomed to teach in our partener schools. Interested and need more info. pls contact helen by: helengan2006@hotmail.com

heyy so i got my tickets booked, so we're definitely on the same flight :) i asked for south too, but i like the cold so wouldn't be too bothered going north... just i'm not bringing massively warm clothes with me as they take up lots of room! haha xx

Hi there. Think were on the same flight. BA039? x

Heyy! I think we're going to be on the same flight out to China! Providing I get my tickets sorted... Where have you requested to be placed?

Oh cool, will be great to see you there, if I manage to get my visa!

Hi again Niamh,


 


I'm really sorry, but our partners in China are not able to confirm even the region of where you might be teaching before you go - no matter where you are though you need to think that you'll be going right from high summer (in August) to deep winter, so you'll need to bring a good mix of clothes wherever you're based.


 


If you are nervous about finding clothes to fit in China I would take basic clothes that you can layer up or down, such as plain trousers, t-shirts, jumpers, dresses etc. There's quite a handy article here which might help you: http://www.tefl-chalkboard.com/honor/posts/221-what-not-to-wear-while-teaching-in-china


 


Also, get in touch with the guys who are out there at the minute to ask their advice... I'm sure they'll be able to ease your clothing worries!

Any more questions give us a shout!

Hey Niamh,


 


Thanks for your message - you find out exactly which school/area you'll be placed in during your orientation week in Beijing - the reason for this is that schools in China have a habit of changing their minds at the last minute - so to avoid chopping and changing everyone's placements, our partners in China just let everyone know where they'll be based once they're in China.


 


Any more questions get in touch!

i think everyones nervous at the moment lol. I think my biggest fear is of something happening that stops me from going.... ok that thought is in my head now so im gonna stop lol

Hey Nikel, i noticed your going on the same china internship as me so i thought id just say hello and hopefully say it again in August!!
