Hey Rob, where were you before? The apartment sounds good for that price. I'm moving to Guangzhou soon and rather looking forward to it (which will probably wear off after a month or two).

Yes, Luohu is a district of Shenzhen, the oldest. It used to be the downtown and CBD, it used to be jam packed with Foreigners. Now most of the businesses have moved to Futian and most of the Foreigners have moved to Shekou or OCT. I saw some statistics way back in 2014 that only 3% of the Foreigners in Shenzhen lived in Luohu at the time, must be <1% today.

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
