I would not go for cheap in China. Cheap = copy. Even expensive is probably copy. But cheap..definitely copy.

Depending where you're from (country), you might have trouble finding your correct prescription .... most Chinese eyes pop out of the head which gives them a "negative "- measurement and most western eyes sink in the head giving a "positive" + measurement... so positive is hard to find... glasses you can find anywhere... You can order contacts online from Hong Kong and pay the delivery (small amounts or you'll be changed import duties) ... just yahoogle some HK optometrists ... good luck..

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
