Couples & Placement with Friends or Family:

Besides price incentives - there are special considerations when placing people together for the purpose of work in China.  You must be able to illustrate that your relationship will survive the challenges of living and working abroad.  Most teacher apartments are setup for single individuals and not suitable for couples.  Therefore, any placement with friends or family requires that a. The school must need to hire two teachers, b. they must have suitably spacious accomodations.

There are certain restrictions you must be aware of, for example:  The terms of withdrawal are different for couples and friends being placed together.  Placement initiatives are exhausting in these situations, therefore backing out of the program will cause alot of problems and expense to replace your position at the school.  Consider that a school has to lease a special apartment for you and pay the entirity of the lease one year in advance.  Think carefully before making your decision to live and work abroad with a friend or relative.

Certified Teachers:

Are those individuals having a minimum of two years, in-class teaching experience and who hold either a TEFL Certification or a Public Teaching Credential.

Journeyeast Alumni:

They did the program once and are foolish enough to come back and do it again.  Welcome back!

College Graduate:

You have a 4-year diploma, but little or no formal teaching experience.
That's okay, we'll walk you through the tough stuff and get you on track for a great experience.

No Diploma:

Mom and Dad probably aren't happy you're reading this, they want you to finish college.  Your expensive fee includes a required Online TEFL Course (Accredited), Travel Insurance and what we fondly refer to as a, "Pain in the ass Fee."  Which describes the difficulty of finding you legal employment in China and supporting your first experience abroad.  Don't believe us?  Try it yourself - you'll be back at college again in no time!
