[quote=BARONTWANGLE,298447]Adam.  You didn't just make one mistake - I counted at least five, with a couple of other badly phrased sentences.  I don't think you are in a good position to teach English to others.  If you were just having a bad day (we all have them!), then I would suggest doing a TEFL course before you go to China.  You can do part one over a single weekend, and then the second part can be done in your own time.  With this qualification, you will have much more luck being taken seriously.  Look it up online, and you should find a course close to you in the coming weeks.
 
Officially you need a Z visa to teach English in China, but the authorities turn a blind eye to many people, allowing them to do it on an F Visa.  To get a Z visa, you would need to have a degree in English - something which you clearly do not have.  If you managed to find a teaching job, then the college or university who offered you the position should be able to sort out your F visa.  I imagine it will be far more difficult (considering your lack of experience and qualifications) to get a teaching job in a big city such as Shanghai, than it would be in a smaller town.  Maybe you should look outside of Shanghai.[/quote]
