Hello all,

My wife and I recently completed 120 hour TESOL courses and are working on a 50 hour teaching young learner course. We are both pursuing BA's online but have a few years to go. I have noticed some people believe a BA is a requirement for a work visa of any kind in China but both the Chinese and American Embassy say it is only needed for a specialists Visa not a Z-visa.

That said we would very much like to finish our degrees online while teaching English in China. Salary is not remotely as important to us as working with children and working together. Neither of us has any "real" teaching experience though I have been helping kids with English my whole life as I have lived overseas in over 20 countries. My wife who has never left the USA strangely enough had a Chinese tutor as a child and has a working knowledge of the language.

I'm overwhelmed by the amount of job postings/recruiters and would like this to be a good experience for both my wife and I. Can anyone recommend a good legitimate recruiter or school that we may be able to obtain work from without BA's in hand.

Thank you in advance^^

Josh

This most likely needs to go on the China forum below...
