[quote=APAULT,319768]Yes, you can get a teaching job with that qualification, but many places will demand a degree.  I think you will have most success with a private language centre, but watch out for the cheats.  To find jobs, simply search on line and you should get plenty of options.  I normally suggest anesl.com as there is lots of info there and it is clear to see what is on offer.  Dave's cafe is also well known.  Pay varies, private centres often pay quite well but you have more class contact with weekend and evening work.  The pay is plenty to live on, in some ways better than in a western country, and others, not so good.  Few ex-pat teachers run a car for example (pay levels and regulations)  so we save money there.  Pay is very low compared with expats who are sent by there companies.  For this reason I do not socialise with this crowd, for example beers at 50 rmb in expat bars, rather than say 10 rmb in a reasonable restaurant, 3rmb from a shop, are out of my league.

Employers should provide appropriate documentation to get a visa. Ideally that should be a Z visa which is converted in your first month to a residency permit.  However they might just get you an F visa - which although it is not really a work visa, is often used as one.  The  Z visa/residency permit is typically for the length of your contract and does not entitle you to change jobs without approval.  F visas are very variable - your employer gets what they can...and you take it from there!    Shanghai, Guangzhou/, Yiwu, ar some obvious places with w/s markets and factories and there are always teaching jobs going in those cities too.[/quote]
