Q: Hey Aussies, any news re-ABC?

Hi fellow Aussies, does anyone have news about the banning of the ABC Tv station, will it be short term or a permanent situation?

It was one of my high lights in China watching their usual intelligent & amusing programes.

I couldn't believe (then again I could !) the pettiness of this Govt. simply because Huawei got knocked back by the Aust. Govt. in entering the Telecommuncation arena (btw ~ England & Canada did the same) citing security risk.

Anyways..we often been told that the CCP have nothing to do with the 'private' company!! Have you heard a better joke??

Still, I miss the ABC and hoping it comes back online at some point, any recent info would be appreciated. Thanks.

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
