Q: Using EMS to send package overseas. How to do it? Do they come to your house to pick up?

Hi all, I would like to send small packages from china to overseas using EMS, I want to send on a regular basis and do not want to go to the post office everytime. Has anyone here used EMS to send packages internationally? How did you do it? Do you call them and come to your house to pick up the package? Are there other delivery company that does pick up from your house and delivers overseas? Thanks

i suggest you call them (have a chinese speaking friend on standby), and ask them all the questions you have.

I have used DHL to send things home and they came to my apartment - i had a local friend with me in the event of needing a Chinese speaker

EMS is part of China Post. I have sent a few packages back home and always had to go to the post office to do it. My wife checked it out and they do not do home pick up as they check everything you send and parcel it up in their own boxes there. I suggest another courier, not UPS though.

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
