About teaching in China
Teaching English in China usually involves working with young children, and plenty of them. The majority of our students are young learners aged from 3 to 14 years old and teachers enjoy teaching to a variety of ages throughout the week. Teacher training and support is seen as key at Shane and we provide a one week training program at the start of your contract as well as on-going training and support in the form of workshops, seminars and class observations from your Academic Manager.
Teachers will either work at their designated school or occasionally are based at a main language centre but take themselves off to local kindergarten or elementary schools to teach groups of students with the assistance of the children’s regular class teacher.
Later in the day, and at weekends, teaching takes place at the language centre where classes are smaller and some students take one-on-one lessons. Expect a varied, albeit regular, schedule and a variety of classroom settings.

Destination China
It’s hard to compare China to anywhere else in the world, and the stories of those who spend time there are as unique as the country itself.
Few places have as rich and old a cultural heritage as the People’s Republic of China.
The world’s most populous nation is also one of its fastest growing economies; recent prosperity and large scale migration are making for exciting changes and developments within twenty-first century China. The coastal cities are impressively modern while rural areas are still very much a step back in time.
Exploring the whole of China would take more than a lifetime but to experience some of the old and the new, the first world and the third, the differences between provinces that may be a thousand miles apart is feasible in a relatively short time.
Being adaptable and going there without preconceptions is the best approach to take if you want to get the most out of your time in this most extraordinary, and at times challenging, place. Always expect the unexpected!
