Q: How much should it cost to ship something less than a pound to America?

I tried China Post and they charge 185RMB for standard shipping. I've recently started making and selling clothes that are extremely light weight, so 185 sounds really rough. Any other ways to ship small amount on the cheap?

have you tried any of the courier companies for costs? for such small amounts of product you might not have enough to fill a container.

China Postal Services is the cheapest carrier in general, so do not waste a lot of time looking for cheaper rates. In looking at other carriers, maybe to get a better rate you must establish an account with them, and agree to a minimum number of shippings per month. Just do not go talking about a one time experience.

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
