Benefits of summer jobs over 12 month contract
Teaching English in China for the summer of 2016 allows you to see what it is like living and teaching in China whilst not having to spend a whole year there. If after the 2 months you decide you like the job and want to extend, 9 out of 10 times the school will be happy to keep you on. If not, then there will still be plenty of language school jobs available for an early September start.
The package offered by most of the language school jobs is quite tempting too. They will provide a flight allowance which covers the plane ticket over, put you up in a house shared with one other teacher, provide insurance, training and all the other benefits that go with working for a language school in China as well as a decent salary to live on. So teaching English in China for the summer offers all the benefits of the year long job.
Cost of living in China is low and your salary goes a long way so there’s a good chance you’ll be able to finish the summer course with some savings.
