Q: How to send excess baggage from Hangzhou to Australia?

I have five suitcases I want to send to Australia, as I am heading back to the real world for a while. I am in Hangzhou. Does anybody know of a reasonably priced and reliable freight company that can do this?

If I were you, I will seriously consider Chinese Postal Services. Their parcel post rates to send things abroad are quite cheap, beats UPS, FedEx, etc by a mile. Only draw back is it may take two to three months to get there. I have done many times in the past, things have always arrived safety. You may need to repack them in boxes, but the savings could be worth consideing.

I met two people in suzhou who were escorting two huge cases for 'former friends' who had invited them to visit then foised the cases on them. They were headed for the USA. One trip home, Chinese helped me past the scales and security, everything - no problems with numbers of bags or weights, but the plane stopped at another city. We changed planes and things went bad.

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
