Q: About teaching in China and not be a native English speaker

I’ve realized that South African’s are considered as the only native English speaker in Africa that can teach in China but I'm from Ghana and English is our native language too so is there a chance for me to teach in China after school

Ghanaian Pidgin English (GhaPE), also known as Kru English (or, in Akan, kroo brofo), is a variety of West African Pidgin English spoken in Ghana, predominantly in the southern towns and the capital, Accra. It is confined to a smaller section of society than other West African creoles, and is more stigmatized perhaps due to the presence of Twi as the lingua franca of choice.

It's possible. Difficult but possible. Usually schools register your work permit as something different than as an English teacher when you are non native. In some provinces it's more difficult than in others, but it's done all the time.

However, people here can be very racist and chances they will hire a black non native speaker is pretty low.
