Preparing Documents to Teach English In China| My Journey to China| Emily Boitumelo

*NB Information*
Hey guys. Here’s some information on documents you’d need to prepare if you’re considering applying for a teaching job in China. I hope this helps.
Thank you for watching. ❤️
PCC: www.saps.gov.za/services/appl...
Degree verification SAQA: www.saqa.org.za
Teach TEFL DADDY'S DEALS: daddysdeals.co.za/deals/johan...
The procedure to prepare documents for teaching in China as follows:
1. Apply for police clearance R150 (takes about 2 to 3 months). So apply well in advance.
2. Mail degree to SAQA for authetication and wait for them to respond for payment and collection.
3. Notarise Tefl certificate at Notary Public (fee differs from R50 to R1500, so use one that is not expensive) and appostille it at High Court.
4. Take Degree, TEFL and PCC to DIRCO who authenticate all documents for work abroad (free, fetch next day. More than 5 documents take 4 working days)
5.Medical exam with passport photo needs to be done for most schools (others might ask you to sign a letter to state you are well) as you will have to do again in China.
6. Take all documents, including medical and copy of each page to Chinese Consulate for authentification of documents for work in China(4 days is free)
7. Scan all docs including seal on last page and send to School with signed job offer (most schools require docs to be mailed as per requirement, most tier 1 cities will ask that original documents be posted.
8. Invitation letter can take one week to 2 months. Take passport, invitation letter and passport photos to visa office(embassy R860, 4 to 6 working days depending on which one you use)
9. Fetch visa and pay now only.
10. Book flight and enjoy the experience.
Take other passport photos with as you will need them in China.

    Yes. Get your documents ready while you’re still looking so that when you get an offer you don’t have to start from the beginning. Most companies look for people who have their documents ready and are ready to go.
