If some of the people I know can get a job teaching here, so can you.

No. Yes. Maybe.  That is my definite and final answer, I think.

You can but it will be hard to do it legally. It's up to you though.

But you do not have the native accent and do not use English naturally as the native does, that's all what matters, Teching in China definitely not a job got non native no matter what degree you have and what certificate you have.

Getting a job won't be your main problem, the main problem will be getting a visa. There was a rule where if you got your degree from a native speaking country you could teach legally but I'm sure I remember someone here saying that rule has recently changed.

 

There are non native speakers teaching in China, but I doubt many are doing it legally now.

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
