tried Google for you but no luck

may I suggest you look up one in Beijing as there are lots of info on them with phone numbers and they may be able to put you on to one in Xian

I know it's the long way round but it might be the best way in the long run

Good luck to you

The second link has pictures of last year's ceremony at 天教堂 (Tian JiaoTang)陕西省西安市莲湖区五星街, which looks like a pretty big deal, and a nice church.

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
