* Authenticated Academic Credentials: You will need authenticated copies of your academic degrees and any relevant teaching certificates, such as a TEFL certificate. Authentication typically involves verification from an issuing authority in your home country and possibly further verification from the Chinese consulate or embassy.

Thanks for the clarity. That’s unfortunate, especially for experienced educators like myself, hopefully requirements become more flexible in the future for proven professionals.

'cause Q here was about work experience substitution, not Masters ... that much.
in the past you might have been able to if you knew the right people and were willing to teach in the rurals. Getting the TESOL would be a sinch. Why not spend the two weeks to get it?
