About the Job
Overview
This position is located in Chang Hua City (aka: Chang Hwa City). It should be very easy to find on a map of Taiwan (West coast, just south of Taichung City).
Chang hua City it not a large metropolis, but it has the usual entertainments and places to shop, etc. Changhua is just outside of Taichung City and you can access Taichung easily though the train and bus network.
Chang Hua is a very popular destination for teachers that want to see the more rustic and authentic side of Taiwan (not the big city life). It’s also a popular location for teachers that want to push themselves to learn Chinese, live in a smaller city, have access to the great outdoors and have access to the bigger cities whenever they want a night on the town.
This area offers a solid expatriate community with access to wider expat community in Taichung.
Living expenses in Chang Hua will be far lower than in the bigger cities so you will have a good opportunity to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle while also saving money each month. Chuang Hua therefore offers a truly unique and ‘non mainstream’ challenge.
The owner of this school is a nice Taiwanese woman who speaks English fluently. This is a great benefit in working at the school: communication should be easier and more seamless than it is at most schools in Taiwan. The school is a large and spacious school. The classrooms are spacious and there is a teacher’s office, where you will have your own desk.
