>>409573so, for those of us here, it is piss easy. they are desperate for teachers because of corona entry restrictions and we've been able to ask for wildly higher wages and benefits as a result.
however for you, its gonna be impossible. getting outta the country is fine but they are restricting the amount of foreigners coming in. the talk of the town is the government wants to transition away from foreigners teaching English and get their domestic English speakers to teach English. (which clearly is batshit) however another reason they are restricting the amount of visas being renewed and the types of jobs laowais can get is because they recently raised the amount of kids you can have to 3 to try and curb the demographics problem they have.
unfortunately, because wages are low and work hours stupidly long no one wants to have more than the one kid that is necessary to stop their parents heckling them with dumb confucian morality.
as such, they are placing all sorts of restrictions on "training centers". these are afterschool English schools that to "bring up a kid properly" to be competitive in the chinese education system, parents are effectively required to pay for.
these fuckers are EXPENSIVE. most chinese i know make like 5-8k rmb per month. these classes can cost thousands a month.
as a result the government is putting such harsh regulations on them that they essentially have to close. all my friends who were in training centers are looking for new jobs, or have them. likely theyll move to kindergartens.
this is hoped to reduce the financial burden on families and hopefully allow for more kids. personally im just happy the.kids get to have afternoons relaxing, or atleast the possibility of it
