Summer TEFL program in China

Review
I thoroughly enjoyed the trip and it exceeded my expectations. Despite there being a little insufficient information prior to arrival (where I'd be staying, with whom and my exact teaching schedule), everything turned out fine. The trip is not free as advertised but it is worth the flight and excursion money. I made very close friends and stayed in a breathtaking part of China - a modern but remote city with beautiful views. Overall, I gained a lot of confidence in exploring an entirely different culture independently. I was lucky enough to be placed in a beautiful city and meet incredible locals who had me appreciate the traditions of discipline and hard work embedded in Chinese culture to a greater degree. As a medical student I had not previously considered paediatrics as a speciality but upon evaluation of my trip, treating children may well be a path I pursue.
