Are Chinese English teachers far from being required to hold TESOL certificates, given that universities and professional English training centers now demand them for hiring foreign teachers?
Facing the increasingly competitive English teaching market, teachers need strategies to stand out. National Committee member Zhu Yongxin proposed developing TESOL certification institutions to improve teaching standards. TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) is crucial for teaching English globally, akin to teaching Chinese as a foreign language. It's vital amidst China's rapid economic growth and global integration, where proficient English educators are scarce.
TESOL certification enhances international teaching standards and opportunities in China. It's essential for schools, training centers, and businesses seeking qualified English teachers. The certification, recognized in over 100 countries, validates skills in teaching English as a second language, crucial for recruitment in 8,000+ institutions worldwide. Certified teachers in such settings earn between 8,000-15,000 RMB monthly and can boost admission chances to foreign universities.
TESOL is globally recognized for teaching English as a second language, setting international standards. Many Chinese students studying TESOL abroad return to compete in the growing market, making certification crucial for English teaching careers worldwide.
TESOL employment rate
In recent years, the demand for English teachers, especially in Asian countries, has rapidly increased worldwide. This trend indicates a continuously expanding job market for TESOL-certified professionals. The demand is most noticeable in mainland China and Taiwan, where English has become compulsory from elementary to high school levels, with even kindergartens starting English education. Consequently, salaries for professional English teachers have been steadily rising, offering lucrative income opportunities.
