There are a whole bunch of English institutions in Suzhou which vary in pay and quality of treatment of the staff.
Meten English is a good place to start if you've never taught before. Competitive pay, good training and support, and they're generally very friendly. [First link]

However, if you are a serious qualified English teacher with enough experience, then you might consider applying for a place at XJTLU, a branch of the University of Liverpool situated in Suzhou. Competition is fierce though; they only accept the best applicants. [Second link]

XJTLU will be a wonderful one

DrMonkey:

Nice necrothread, but for once that's worthy :) XJTLU have a good reputation and they pay well. From what I heard, entry-level income for full time teaching is around 30000 RMB/months.

Q: job oppurtunities for non-native ESL teachers

A: 1. Apply at FindJobz, top L corner of this screen! 2. Have a look

A:1. Apply at FindJobz, top L corner of this screen! 2. Have a look over the Internet with "Requirements for an English teaching job in China" in search for more details.You could also look at the guidance titled "How to use an Internet, search engines in particular ..." for more in-dept knowledge. 3. As you can see from no. 2,, main requirement for an ET job in China is holding of a native English passport (UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and S. Africa), no different than anywhere else in the world. 4. Non-English native passport holders qualify for an ET job in China only if they hold BA degree completed in the native English country.However, most recruiters and hiring managers in China aren't aware of that exemption, so if you hold a degree from one or two native English countries, I suggest you include that into Introduction letter. Good lucky! P.S.Application for the NASA's Moon-to-Mars Program at the Cape Canaveral is less stringent than applying for an ET job as a non-native Englisher ...That of course, is an opinion of a non-English native teacher with lengthy English teaching experience in several different countries. -- icnif77
