ABOUT US
At Foreign Teacher, we bridge the gap between passionate teachers in English-speaking countries and top-tier schools across China. We specialize in connecting teachers with a wide range of employment opportunities by working exclusively with regulated recruitment agents in China.
We understand that navigating the job market can be challenging, which is why we’ve made it our mission to ensure a transparent, reliable, and seamless recruitment process. All of our partner agents are thoroughly vetted and certified by Chinese authorities, ensuring a high level of trust and professionalism. We never pass on any information to unregistered or uncertified agents, keeping your data secure and your job search stress-free.
Why do we work exclusively with agents in China? Simply put, agents within the country have the local expertise, networks, and regulatory insight that external agencies cannot match. By partnering with certified professionals inside China, we are able to offer teachers access to the most diverse range of opportunities in schools and institutions across the country, from bustling cities to quieter regions.
At Foreign Teacher, trust and opportunity go hand-in-hand. We are committed to providing teachers with the best prospects in China’s dynamic market, all while maintaining a trustworthy recruitment process that puts your career goals first.
Let us help you take the next step in your teaching journey!
