About the Job

Overview

I moved to Baotou from south of China 2 years ago. It's a place one would enjoy if the slower pace of life is preferred. People are usually worried about the level of pollution here, though I wouldn't say it's as bad as in a city like Beijing, for example. I love the fact that there are lots of parks here, which includes a huge grassland Saihantala, a perfect place for having fun doing some outdoor activities. There's also a desert located close to Baotou, where you could find lots of interesting things to do. Baotou is a developing city, and the number of foreigners who come here for work or travel increases each year. The foreign community is a supportive group of people who usually arrange lots of fun stuff to do together.
 
This past year I've been working in Shane English school. It's a wonderful experience I certainly appreciate. I had a very decent training, which was extremely helpful as the school has got their own teaching system. It has a fixed structure for lesson plans, though doesn't restrain you when you feel like you should deviate. All the necessary materials are provided, if you ever find a need for new things to use at class, the staff will be there to help. Speaking of which, the atmosphere in the office is very friendly. I truly enjoy working with people there. They'll be there to help with your daily things, as you get accustomed to a new life in a new country/city. Shane English school is overall a great experience when you start your ESL career in China.
