Q: Missionaries... pretending to be teachers... false witness?

Simple question really. As there is no 'missionary visa' ,are missionaries on teaching visas bearing false witness?

I don't know about false witness but the ones who sign on to teach kids English then proselytize instead of actually doing what they're paid to do are nothing more than thieves in my opinion.

Oh, they can't be theives. God said "Thou shalt not steel". But it is mostly religious people who do that. Bearing false witness would be a better category. Instead of doing what they were meant to do (if there here on a legal visa) they are coercing people to believe in their god. ( If you don't believe in god you will burn in hell or go to pergatory.) indecision

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
