Try crossing the southern border and climb a fence. Then apply for federal assistance. You do not need a medical exam or pay taxes. You don't even need to know the language of the country. Oh wait. Wrong country. Sorry.
Nope, you do not qualify for China's standards.

Great answer! ... but, I still think, your BD might be on Feb. 29th ...

Nohow .. for simple reason, you don't qualify for the legal English teaching work in China.
Don not expect replies at your job applications ...
Non-native English passport holder had slight chance to land an English teaching job in China before the Law changes in 2017 ... if she/he holds a degree completed in native English country (UK, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand or South Africa).
I believe, even native English passport holder would experience troubles at the employment in China by holding a degree completed at the top Madagascar's University or any of the other non-native English countries.
In other words, if your degree wasn't completed in 5 above mentioned countries, it isn't worth a squat in China.

What Are the Requirements for a Z Visa?
To be eligible for a Z visa, you will need to meet the requirements to teach English which are set out by your school in China. While these requirements may differ from school to school, they tend to revolve around three main components:
*A Bachelor’s Degree in any subject 
*Two Years Work Experience or TEFL certificate (ideally 120 hours) 
*Native English Speaker 
*Non-Criminal background check

You have to work illegally, which isn't recommended.
