Teaching Nomad - Teaching Opportunities in China

I had taught in China a year before using Teaching Nomad at a training school and had quite a mixed experience due to the management of the school. I decided to work at a kindergarten the next time and used Teaching Nomad to help find a school.

I was looking for a kindergarten that was away from the big cities like Beijing and Shanghai but still connected enough to be able to travel around. My adviser, Moira, was excellent- she listened to all the things I wanted from a school and was able to find me a placement that worked for me very quickly. She also answered any questions I had in regards to the process of getting out to china, health insurance and the area the school was in. Due to the pandemic it's quite difficult to find schools in China right now and I wouldn't have found what looks to be a great school without her help.

Looking forward to travelling out to Foshan when the borders open!

Helped me from the very start, which for me was trying to decide which TEFL certification to go with. From there my consultant, Moira, helped me with the documents I needed, gave me resume tips, sent off my profile to various schools even before my certification was complete, and gave me interview tips when the schools wanted to meet me. Thanks to help Moira and teaching nomad provided, I have just signed a contract with a higher than normal salary for a first time teacher. Now they are helping me out with authenticating my documents and my application for a visa :)

I've been using Teaching Nomad for the second time since I arrived in China. I have to say that I am impressed by the support and structure. Except the early first interview looool, I'd love the fact that I could chat with them via WeChat, email or else whenever. Marissa Olan has been listening to my needs in looking for my new positions and assist me to look for the appropriate school. As a non-native qualified teacher it was refreshing to have someone showing me that finding a job where I wanted was possible. I will be using their services again. They have a great range and variety of schools working with them.
A trustworthy agency. Thank you.

After a friend recommended Lauren Klein at Teaching Nomad to me, I decided to chat with her about teaching opportunities in China. She asked me a number of really helpful questions to assist me in figuring out the kind of position that would be best for me. She answered all questions I had within a day and was incredibly accommodating when my school preferences changed during the recruitment process. Lauren got me three interviews with great schools, and I'm sure I could have had as many as I wanted if I didn't like one of those three. In the end I found a great job, and I barely had to do a thing more than showing up to the interview. All in all I highly recommend Lauren and Teaching Nomad.

This will be my first time teaching in China and teaching abroad so I did extensive research onto which recruiter seemed the best. Teaching Nomad seemed to have the best reviews so I decided to go with them and they definitely lived up to the high expectation. My placement consultant was Tiffany and she was fantastic. She got in touch and organised a short interview via Skype where she asked what I was looking for. Tiffany then put my application out to all the schools that met my requirements. I didn't have to do anything really. All of a sudden interviews were coming left right and centre. Tiffany was still on hand to answer any questions I had, for instance I was curious about the wage bracket between Nanjing and Fuzhou and Tiffany went above and beyond in terms of working out the difference. I have now accepted a schools offer and I couldn't have done it without the support of Tiffany and Teaching Nomad. If you are want to teach in China and aren't sure who to go with, go with Teaching Nomad they won't let you down.

I heard about Teaching Nomad through a friend who landed a position in the UAE. Thus, I decided to look into it as I started to expand my international search. I sent in all of my documents and was assigned a mentor, Marissa. From the beginning Marissa was so supportive. I was looking for teaching jobs in China and UAE. Marissa constantly sent me available positions and asked me if they were a good fit. We are living in a challenging time so to receive such timely feedback was appreciated. I'd definitely use Teaching Nomad again.

I would highly recommend Teaching Nomad to anybody looking for teaching positions in China. My recruiter was Moira and she was professional, helpful and patient from the very start. As I am currently not in China it has provided some major challenges for me to find employment in China due to current restrictions in place but Moira was very good and keep in contact with me and helped me find a great job. If anybody is looking for teaching positions overseas, definitely contact Teaching Nomad. I only have good things to say about them.

My Placement Associate, Marissa Olan, was super helpful during the whole process. The support staff at Teaching Nomad and the coordinating schools are great. This is a great program for finding a position with good pay and benefits, as well as some positions that are really good for building your resume and increasing your teaching skills. There are a lot of options for people who are entry-level and also for professional teachers that have been doing this a long time. I would recommend this program to recent graduates, young professionals, couples, and also families.
