Hi People!
So I recently signed up for a program called Gotoco that sets up interested English speakers with summer teaching placements in China. Room and board are included as well as a stipend. You can find out more here!.
All that isn't covered are your flight and visa costs (which can be hefty I know).
Also useful: Gotoco will provide flight discounts to those who spread the word (...so full disclosure).
I hope this is useful to any people interested in spending time in China on a budget while also earning their Teach English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certificate!
Cheers
