Q: Chances of getting employed.

What are my chances of getting employed since I have 1 year teaching experience and most positions require 2+  years of experience?

if you give more details, such as an answer to the above, then you have earned a better answer.

to many of the recent posts do not appear to be genuine, as they are either 'post and run' or have obvious flaws in their 'story'
thanks

I'd say, yes, you have chances to get ET job with only 1-year of working experience and right age, i.e. not too young as older than 18 - 20 years old.

 

2-years of working experience was put in place to prevent too young teachers apply for a job in China.

 

Just send your CV to every ET job vacancy you see and then ... tell us all about.

 

Good lucky!

Besides 1 year of experience for this position, are there any additional educational requirements? Foreign language proficiency, for example.

it is easy enough to search online for the requirements to work in China.

If you are unable to do this basic task on your own, i suggest that you are not ready to work anywhere, let alone China.

too many people spend time on social media searching about their favourite 'celebrity' yet seem unable to apply the same work when looking for a job.

just saying.

Where did you read about 1-year of ET experience? I know ...

 

Enter into any search engine:

"Requirements for an English teaching job in China" ... and voila ...

Last word is in French ...  ... and Sorrel is right!

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
