Q: any good swimming pool in hangzhou?

Ni Hao!

This is my third week here in Hangzhou and i try to learn more about city.
I wonder if someone can help about finding a good swimming pool here in Hangzhou?

I used to swim for 2-3 years in my country and for keeping fit, I look for a good one with any price if its good.
Thanks for helping

See you / Jack

I don't think I'd swim in a pool in China. I stayed at a Sheridan, thought I'd go for a swim, the water was way too cold. The only other person in the pool was a Chinese guy, who did one lap and then just horked and spit for awhile. I left discusted and when i went downstairs the attendant asked why I was leaving so soon, I told him and you could still hear the guy spitting. eww

In hangzhou just like many places you can find pools in apartment complexes and gyms. With both you would likely need some type of membership as I don't think they have free public pools here like they do back in the states.

Q: Do I have to be native speaker to teach English literature?

A: You can still skin into China as a non-English native teacher by holdi

A:You can still skin into China as a non-English native teacher by holding English Teaching license in your home country.2nd: Your BA degree should be completed in a native English country. Once, you fulfilled these 'parameters', you qualify for an English teaching job in China as a non-native English sneaker with Z - Entry/Working visa with Working and Residence permit later on. See the last 'Answers Highlight' ---> there is a web link posted about 'requirements for teaching English language in China as a non-English native passport holder'. https://www.gooverseas.com/blog/guide-teaching-english-china#paragraph-item-63614-target

*English proficiency: Passport from one of seven "native speaker" countries (US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, and South Africa). If you aren’t a native speaker, you’ll need to be a certified teacher in your home country with proof of your English proficiency (e.g. IELTS or TOEFL). I'd say, Chinese will choose and look especially for a native English speaker at teaching of English Literature job openings. Posted job adverts for English Literature teaching are most likely from International Schools in China. Good luck! -- icnif77
