Roxana Elena Posted February 14, 2013 at 12:45 PM Report Posted February 14, 2013 at 12:45 PM Hello everyone! Are there many possibilities of teaching English in Kunming, Yunnan? I have to mention I am not an English native...but my English is ok, I think, I have taught English in Beijing for a couple of months.Thank you! Quote
abcdefg Posted February 15, 2013 at 03:00 PM Report Posted February 15, 2013 at 03:00 PM I live in Kunming and, though I'm not an English teacher, I know many people here who are. Jobs are available for the best qualified applicants in the universities and middle schools. Less qualified applicants can also usually find work teaching in a private school. Employers prefer native speakers, but people who are not can still usually get hired. Not sure what else to say. 1 Quote

abcdefg Posted February 16, 2013 at 12:31 AM Report Posted February 16, 2013 at 12:31 AM I study Chinese language and culture here, using a combination of private schools and individual tutors. Occasionally I teach spoken English on the side, though I have no special training in that field. Have been living part of each year here since 2007 and by now consider Kunming my "second home." I also travel a lot in China and use Kunming as the hub. I'll be glad to try to help you answer other questions as time goes along.
