LANGUAGECORPS' TEACHCHINA PROGRAM

LanguageCorps’ TeachChina Program provides a comprehensive blend of training and orientation, guaranteed job placement, and support services to help ensure you have a secure, rewarding English teaching adventure.

TESOL Training and Certification

The TeachChina Program begins with an intensive TESOL training and Certification phase. The first 2 weeks of TESOL training take place in Phnom Penh, Cambodia (including a great excursion to Angkor Wat), followed by additional training in China for local orientation and practice teaching.

Job Placement

Following your 2 weeks of classroom work and travel in Phnom Penh, you continue on to China to finish your TESOL training and practice teaching in the location where you will ultimately work. Your teaching position will be at one of our affiliated schools located throughout China. Job assignments rely heavily on your individual qualifications and preferences, which we always seek to accommodate, but job placements also require flexibility on your part. China’s complex systems of city-specific regulations and work permits can complicate things, but if you are accepted into the TeachChina Program, we will guarantee that we will place you in a teaching position with good pay and benefits. These prescribed options are for your protection, as the consequences of violating local laws can be significant: it is not unheard of for teachers working illegally to be expelled from the country! To ensure that this does not happen, LanguageCorps only places participants at schools that conform to local laws and provide work visas.
