Program Reviews

I have been working in China as an English teacher for four months now, and I'm thourougly enjoying it. TLE have done a great job with setting me up here and getting a job at a school with access to lots of resources and a strong support system. They have also provided me lots of help for any problems or questions I might have. However, I do wish they would provide more support to help new teachers develop their skills, like with hosting more programs that help with practicing and trying new teaching methods.

Overall a very helpful company for getting you through the door and making sure all your needs are met, but once you've settled in they tend to take a hands-off approach, though they are on hand to provide help if requested, so be mindful of that.

Talent E have made my transition into China so relaxing and stress and stress free. They equipped me with some great lesson plans and learning material to help when it came to teach. They gave me training and made me feel confident when entering a classroom. Getting all my documentation was hassle free the team guided and supported me. Any concerns I raise they answered kindly and promptly the team has been a great stepping stone into entering China. They are friendly, really supportive and really look after you. I love my school they put me in and am so thankful for there suggestions and guidance. Thank you Talent - E team!

This week, I reached the 'One Month' milestone of living in China! I am happy to say my experience with TLE has been positive since I landed! I was greeted at the airport by friendly and familiar faces, who helped me navigate the metro and brought me to my hotel- making me feel much less alone in a very new city! Since arriving in China, TLE have provided outstanding care and support. They have helped me through the transition into my school, the process of finding and renting my apartment, and even recommended restaurants and things to do! TLE also has organised social events and outings through which I have met many lovely people. There is such a community of caring and kind individuals here, whose help has made my first month in China truly special.

From the moment I landed at SZX, the wonderful people at TLE have been excellent in assisting my integration into China. Their onboarding process is very streamlined. Within 2 days I had all the essentials I needed to live in China. They've also been able to accommodate any additional requests I've had. Furthermore, TLE has proven to be an invaluable liaison between myself and the school I work at. They have the expertise and experience to handle any situation that may arise, and they truly care about their teachers.

I have just arrived in China and am so thankful that I have had TLE by my side this whole time. China is very different to my home (UK) which means that coming here to work can be very scary and difficult. Even before I left the UK, the TLE staff have helped me every step of the way, from visas and flights to apartments and teacher training. Coming to China can be hectic at times but TLE are there to take away any stress so that you only have to do the bare minimum. I really can't recommend them enough as each and every one of them are not only great at their jobs but also just wonderful people!

TLE have been excellent help in making the transition to teaching in China. They provide consistent support and guidance, and arrange fun social activities. The training not only helped guide my lessons but also connected me to other teachers & formed some strong friendships! And there review lessons help you keep improving as a teacher. Whenever there have been small issues along the way TLE have been a great helping hand. Would recommend them & the experience in general to anyone thinking about applying.

Teaching in China has been such an amazing adventure and I couldn’t have done it without the help and support of TLE. From beginning to end, TLE has helped logistically and personally, from visa assistance to teaching support and travel recommendations. TLE always made an effort to create opportunities to meet other likeminded teachers and to better understand and integrate into Chinese culture!

They have been a rock throughout my experience and are an essential to anyone moving to China for the first time!

I arrived in China over a year ago with a mix of emotions — excitement, hope, anxiety, nerves, and everything in between.

Talent-E have been a huge part of my time in Shenzhen. They placed me with a school and supported my entry into the country, helping with everything from housing and mobile networks to the essential things you need to settle into life in China. That support didn’t stop once I arrived either — they continued to be there throughout the year.

As time goes on, you naturally become more independent, but Talent-E have always been ready to help when needed, whether that’s arranging doctor’s appointments, offering teaching advice, or even recommending places to eat. I really can’t speak highly enough of the support I received, including towards the end of my contract.

I’m very grateful for my experience. I’ve made lasting friendships and genuinely enjoyed the job I was given. It’s been an unforgettable year.

I’d say working with an agency like Talent-E is essential when getting set up in China. The first few months aren’t always easy — there’s a lot to learn and a definite culture shock — but Talent-E do a great job of minimising that as much as possible. I’m thankful for their support and would recommend working with them.

I came to China nervous and afraid of the unknown. I was truly in the dark and worried that it was going to be a difficult transition. TLE worked so hard to make sure I was secure, safe and ready to live a prosperous life in China and that was 3 years ago now! I couldn’t recommend a more reliable agency to help you start your teaching journey in China!

To go into more detail. First day they helped with SIM cards and all the necessary things to survive in China. It was hard to fight the jet lag but it helped a lot.

The agency has been very helpful in setting up everything in order to have a comfortable life in China. The school life is also very rewarding. The location is good and very convenient for traveling between the many different locations available for relaxation and entertainment. There are multiple opportunities available to interact with other foreign teachers while simultaneously better understanding the local culture. Overall, I would recommend this experience as it is not very stressful in terms of you don’t have to handle anything alone, and the company is helpful in making any necessary accommodations
