Learning and African language isn't a big thing here in China.

I mean are there any testing jobs here? I have been told some time ago, but can't find anything now.

I doubt it. They'd be few and far between if they exist at all. There are plenty of English teaching jobs.

Well have you checked the job section of this website?

What languages do you speak and what is your native one?

From what I understand there is a lot of people looking for "native" english speakers, way more than actual native english speakers in China, so I guess you can always pose as one?

But to be sure there is a huge demand of english teacher, then I would say european languages like German, French, Russian, Italian, Spanish, etc is probably also in demand but definitely not as much...

But since China is doing more and more business in African countries you never know!

Good luck

Please don't entertain this troll, I'll give you a hint. He claims he's from South Africa, please no one tell him.

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
