About the Job

Overview

 

Teach kindergarten (K1, K2 and K3) and experience "real China" in a canal-lined mid-level city about an hour from Shanghai!
Teachers with 24 months experience as an English teacher and a TESL/TEFL certification will qualify for a work visa. Original, tailored curriculum is provided but freedom is given to each teacher as to how they approach any given lesson (teacher's guides are provided).

Generous salary and modern accommodations make for relatively easy living and lots of travel. Kunshan is a growing city with a thriving but close-knit expat community. Banyan Global Learning provides professional development and a network of teachers that focus on quality instruction today and enhanced job prospects whatever your next step may be.

Location: Kunshan, China
Start Date: August 2019

Monthly salary of 17,100 RMB with bonus of 27,000 RMB for contract completion (9000 at the end of the first semester and 18000 at the end of the second semester).
