Frequently Asked Questions

The most important document to teach in China is a Z visa. Other requirements generally vary from one school or institution to another. You can get the latest info from the embassy in your country.

Most employers require at least a Bachelor’s degree and TEFL certification. Other qualifications could include work experience and native English skills, depending on the school. Know the eligibility requirements before sending your application.

The monthly salary for foreign teachers in China typically ranges from $1,000 to $3000, sometimes even more. How much you get generally depends on your experience and qualifications as well as the employer and location.

There is always a need for foreign teachers in China. This is due to the year-on-year shortage of teachers (by the thousands!) all over the country, increasing consumption of English education, and a lesser number of applicants.

I'm not leaving Chengdu !

April 15, 2025by: William Cooper - United KingdomProgram: GlobalYouth Aupair in China

This Au pair was an undeniably wonderful and life-changing experience. It enabled me to greatly develop my Chinese, truly understand on a personal level the lifestyle and culture of Chinese people and get to know a whole bunch of new people and new opportunities in China. I developed such a strong and caring relationship with the family and especially the children which I will definitely cherish forever. Global Youth and their team never failed to help me when an issue arose and always did so very quickly and always with the upmost compassion and empathy.
