Details
Teach English in China [www.teic.co.uk] is a programme dedicated to sending qualified applicants to China. It is run in conjunction with CEAIE, a not for profit wing of the Ministry of Education, Beijing. Applicants must be graduates, and fluent English speakers. Those graduating in July 2016 are eligible to apply. Any degree subject is accepted.
Teachers are provided with an international airfare, a furnished, campus apartment free of charge and a local teacher's salary. Local support is provided by English speaking staff at CEAIE. Placements are in cities throughout China and are in recognised schools and universities. We place friends together.
The programme commences in mid-August 2016 until the end of June 2017. We also have placements available from February 2016 until July 2016.
You will teach approximately 18 periods a week with good holidays. No teaching experience is required. You focus on spoken English: communication, confidence building, vocabulary, pronunciation and public speaking in class. You are encouraged to volunteer for extra-curricular activities such as drama, music, sport, general association.
FREE TEFL training is provided by the Ministry of Education through an online, 60 hour course. In addition, there will be a two-week teacher training camp in Beijing, Shanghai or Hunan Province where you put your theory into practice. When both TEFL and the language camp are undertaken together they are provided free of charge and this includes hotel accommodation and food at the summer camp. If you do not attend the camp then there is a charge for the TEFL training.
Do something very different for a year: learn Mandarin: explore China, make your CV even more interesting.
We have invited TEIC on campus to give interested students a short presentation on the programme, you have the chance to meet Professor Phil Thomas who organizes the placements.
