Q: Risk of Lockdown Spreading to Your City?

Just noticed, in my area of city, some stores are quietly dismantling shelves and sections of stores; some shops/places of business are already shut down; entrance requirements at various places have become more rigorous.

 

Anyone else worried?

As a teacher living on a Suzhou high school campus, I am in lockdown now. All seniors who are studying for GaoKao, admin, senior's teachers, cleaning staff, and cooks are all required to stay on campus until next Wednesday. Although I do not teach the seniors, I do live on the campus. So, I am stuck here. No food or mail deliveries allowed either. Thankfully, the company I work for has arranged to have someone go shopping for the teachers of our department. It is an inconvenience only. Hopefully, the government will not extend the lockdown, but I think they will extend.

I would strongly suggest anyone not in lockdown to stock up on food, water etc if you haven't already, just in case.

 

Omicrom spreads fast so it seems likely more cities will get locked down. I'm sure everyone has been watching the news, food delivery services are likely to be pushed to their limit and availability of your preferred foods might not be a given.

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
