Q: which cities offer more teaching jobs to non -native professionals?
6 years 4 weeks ago in Teaching & Learning - China
My friend sent me a screeshot of Lang Fang town/city, Shaanxi actually asking specifically for non native, melanated, from developing countries with little or no teaching experience.
We laughed about the conditions they could expect
Who is Non-native professional? Not Chinese, laowai ...?
Have a look at 'Jobs' link, top L of this screen and sort through the job offerings till you don't come across of job opening with word 'foreigner' ...
If you are a Non-native English teacher, all job openings with 'Non-native English teacher accepted ...' will end up as an 'illegal employment' unless you are holding degree completed in native English country.
If it's teaching then you don't have many options, as icnif said. Unless you want to work illegally, which is opening yourself up to a world of shit.
I'd recommend a tier 47 "city" in Hunan or Jiangxi. Don't ever go out on your time off, if they give you any. Just go straight home and save up the peanuts they pay you until the police come to take you away.
I see nothing but Non Natives in 2nd and 3rd tier cities in training schools but not working legally
icnif77:
I would say, all these jobs most likely aren't filled through an online adverts, but 'walk-in' and ask for a job.
Haha isn't this an illegal immigrant question? I'm calling ICE
icnif77:
OP is from 'sanctuary city'. ICE can't enter it for now ....
They all do. Bigger the city, the more illegal jobs. The cities with the most strict rules have the most illegal workers.
I gave OP a thumbs up. My reasoning is that he/she/it/shehim/heher/ brings up a topic worth discussion and putting forth the info regarding. Yeah, I know it has been done a 100 times before, but still, on these online forums the same topic gets rehashed a million times... nature of the beast.
To answer the OP, I dunno which cities, but plenty of job adverts for 'non-natives', I even see adverts saying 'no degree required'. I don't know what game they are playing, but prolly end up screwing-over the 'teacher' when all is said and done.
Remember the ol' days when getting your papers was a matter of guanxi? I kinda miss those days...
Devils Advocate:
So sorry to disagree with you but the OP has several issues.
1. "Cities" do not offer "jobs" to non-natives
2. If the OP had done any research at all, he/she would know that teaching is out unless 4-year degree in a related field, two-year post-grad experience, and from one of the "big 5."
3. The OP has not stated any relevant experience or qualifications.
4. The OP has not chimed in since he/she posted the original question.
Hotwater:
To play Devils Advocate number 2 - a 4-year degree is NOT required. It’s a bachelors degree that is required. 4-year degreees are American things. You can complete BSC or BA degree in the UK in 3 years.

almost any training center, public school or vocational college in the ad will write “native speakers only“， but would hire anyone with proper documents （authenticated degree, tefl, non criminal record）。 I know many non native speakers teaching English, Literature, Science on legit work visa/residence permit.
and to be honest my school stopped hiring indians, because of the strong accent
Any real international school should be able to secure you a visa for the subject you teach.
If you are a Russian violin teacher who has played solo with the LSO, your visa wont be a problem.
If you are a physics teacher with published papers... no problem.
The thing to do, is to search for the international schools and apply directly. If they want you they will get a visa for you.
Good luck.
