Hi Everyone,
I am getting burnt out working so much, at my high school and training center roles over the past five years.
1. I am thinking university teaching jobs might be best. Among the conditions I like would be:
a. Work at any university in China, teaching English literature.
b. Ideally, this would be a low density job, such as 10-20 hours a week. Most professors I know, around the world, teach only about 7-10 hours a week.
c. I am willing to work for low pay, such as 7000 RMB a month. Yet, I would want access to a cheap/free apartment or dorm.
2. Ideally, I would also be teaching English literature like in a Western country.
a. All students read about a book a week, before class, maybe of well-known novels like "Tom Sawyer" or British literature.
b. We would have discussions about this during the week. This develops listening, and speaking skills.
c. At the end of each week, a short essay paper would be due. This develops planning and writing skills.
3. Can anyone tell me how to do this?
a. My guess is just speak to many university programs in China, and ask for details?
b. I have no bachelor's in English, only history. I may get one soon, as second/additional bachelor's take less than one year.
c. I do have a CELTA. Any bachelor's + CELTA may be the best.
4. Thanks for the advice.
