WHO IS THIS JOB A GOOD FIT FOR?

Working for Lovely English suits young professionals who are looking for an authentic Chinese experience. Haimen is located 2 hours by bus from Shanghai, 1.5 hours from Suzhou and 45 minutes from Nantong. There is plenty of time during the year for our teachers to travel and explore other parts of China. Haimen is a small city but there is no shortage of things to do. Haimen is growing larger every year, with many restaurants, shopping malls, parks, but with a relatively small population therefore it is not a crowded city. Haimen is also a lot cheaper than neighbouring Shanghai, therefore working in Haimen is a great opportunity to save money and plan your next step in life.

Our school truly cares about the experiences of it's teachers and puts a lot of effort into making sure that all of our teachers feel supported to do their jobs and enjoy their lives in China.

I have been teaching at Lovely English for 2 years. I am South African and CELTA qualified. I have been teaching English for a total of 3 years.
