Q: Can anyone recommend any good cobblers in Beijing?

I've got at least half a dozen shoes with broken heels, souls and holes in them. I've brought them to my local cobbler before but they broke again after a day. I'm willing to spend a bit extra to ensure they're fixed properly. It'll still be cheaper than buying new shoes.

Well, in Beijing, you know there are two major outlet stores, the silk market and one that's near BFE. They have shoe repair in the shoe departments, they are good, I've had alot of work done by them. On the flip side, try buying shoes on Taobao, or go to Beijing South, and take the North exit walk out and go straight across the street. You will see a lrge shoe outlet center. If you know how to bargain, you can walk out with 6 pairs of high heels that are ok quality for around 100 rmb.
Then who needs shoes fixed, just be a fashionable Lolitta.

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
