TESOL Course in CHINA, Zhuhai
 Why
TEFL Course in Zhuhai, China?
One of the most ancient civilizations in the world, China has been the
exotic orient for the western world. Formerly known as the ‘forbidden’
country it has opened its door to a culture that is ancient but also
keeping pace with the modern where 1.2 billion people call home, with
bustling markets, huge cities and surprising open spaces.
“China isn't a country - it's a different world. Unless you have a
couple of years and unlimited patience, it's best to follow a loose
itinerary here, such as following the Silk Road, sailing down the Yangzi
River, or exploring the Dr Seuss landscape of Guangxi Province. From
shop-till-you-drop metropolises to the desert landscapes of Xinjiang,
China is a land of cultural and geographic schisms. It's not that it has
completely done away with its Maoist past - it's more that the yin of
revolutionary zeal is being balanced by the yang of economic
pragmatism”. – The Lonely Planet
