How long is a piece of string?   Only you can answer this question.  If your Chinese is good then it wont be hard.  Honestly what kind of answer would you like?  I thought it was easy but that doesn't mean you will.

Hi, Good question!

 

May I ask what you mean with advanced level though? 4, 5 or 6? I am up to level 4 and found it manageable. I am studying since a year and a half so the material was not too hard for me. I found practice with actual HSK questions very helpful, to get in the grind and especially get used to the time pressure you'll have. I did that for 3 months or so, most intensely in the two weeks before the test.

 

Here is an overview over what is expected in terms of vocabulary and what question types you can expect:

Hope this helps.

 

Good luck!

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
