Hiring English Teachers in Chengdu

[MikeJoyce]

Hi all,
I currently live in Tianjin where I work as an English teacher, but I would like to move to Chengdu in the autumn. I have almost 3 years teaching experience and by summer I will be CELTA trained. I work in a high school teaching International Baccalaureate English where I am currently being offered 16,000rmb per month (and a free flat) to stay here another year.

I’ve been looking at several Chengdu expat forums for English teaching jobs and haven’t found anything offering anywhere near the salary I am already on. I would really like to move to Chengdu but don’t want to take a pay cut to do so.

What I would like to know is if it is realistic for a qualified teacher with some experience to earn a similar or higher salary to the one I am on now. If anyone could offer some advice or point me in the right direction to find such a job then I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you!

Mike

When you find a job paying that amount in chengdu feel free to let us know. Besides having 4-5 extra jobs on side. Good luck

There are English teachers in Chengdu who make more than that. It’s definitely possible, but you will likely have to work your way up the ladder. It’ll be difficult to find a job that starts at 16k if you aren’t already in Chengdu. Those really lucrative positions are already occupied by people who’ve been in Chengdu for a while and know the local landscape, have connections, etc.

[MikeJoyce]

That’s what I’m afraid of. I’ve been in Tianjin for almost 3 years and got the job I have now using exactly those kind of methods. I’m expecting it to be hard to immediately get the same or a higher salary if I move to a new city!
Thanks for your advice so far, if anyone has any more advice then please keep it coming 🙂

I want to vouch for A-one school!

I worked there for about 6 weeks. The fact is they hired a shitty agency (golden bridge) that did not want to pay the teacher (me! and I’m guessing they are still having problems and might have lost money on that deal if they posted an ad here).
The school itself is awesome and the teachers are really nice (& not that fake friendly either, genuinely nice). The kindergarten is like heaven on earth, a magical land of DIY toys and adorable dancing toddlers. The cafeteria food is greeeeat. It’s about 27 classes per week and like 12 of those are 10 minutes long pre-k classes.
I left the school because the agency didn’t want to pay me as they agreed and because they never did as promised. I really struggled about it for a while because the school/people are so nice but the agency sucks soooo much. I can’t work for them now (plus I’m sure they are annoyed at me cuz of how I chose to handle the agency so they wouldnt give me visa trouble) but this is really nice job for someone who really likes kids/teaching and wants to learn chinese. Oh and the director has lived in Canada for a decade and is super young, so you wont feel as “odd man out” being the only foreigner. One drawback is it is quite far, right next to the airport, but only 30-45 minutes by bus 1st ring road & gaoshengqiao.

Anyway, they are good people and deserve a good teacher, so I hope someone can respond to them and they dont have to go through another shitty agency. 😀

Now for an ad:

Result education is a new company with a surprising slant unlike any other education company in Chengdu right now: from the owners, to the assistants, to the management, every member of this company has been foreign educated & has a consistent idea of what a language education should be. Everyone here can speak English, down to the last secretary.

We are a young, energetic, playful & non-traditional company and we are looking for some fun, similarly minded new people to join us.

We need:
An art or acting teacher (foreign or Chinese)
A dance or music teacher (Foreign or Chinese)
A sports/physical fitness teacher with experience in teamwork training (Foreign)
4 Foreign teachers (playful, expressive, enthusiastic, physically animated, caring, clear accents, race is not an issue but accent is~ yes we will consider foreign born/raised Chinese for this. Must have at least 1 year experience specific to kids.)
4 Chinese teachers (clear intonation & pronunciation, animated, flexible, outgoing, patient, expressive and cheerful. Must have at least 1 year experience specific to kids.)
4 Assistants (Chinese or foreign high school or university students who wants to make friends, gain work experience, etc. Work includes helping students, translating, making copies, running errands, making sure no students fight or get hurt, playing with kids. Monday-Friday 9-4 with 1 hour lunch break. Pay is 500 per week, 2 week job).

These are for a summer camp we are hosting June 30-July 13. It will be in century city and we will have a bus to pick everyone up at the subway station at 8:30 & deliver them to the school. Camp runs 2 weeks, monday-friday 9am-4pm. Pay varies (depending on your skills and how many classes you can teach) but is at or above local average.
