I have lived in England all of my life, and after graduating from University, I decided it was time for a new challenge. I have always been interested in pursuing a career in teaching, and I love learning about new cultures. So when I was offered a teaching job in China, I jumped at the chance.
I didn’t know too much about China before I came, so the thought of living there for a year without knowing the language or the culture seemed very daunting at first. However, YiBo Education made the whole process very easy. They provided me with my visa, free Chinese lessons, accommodation and training, before placing into an excellent Chinese Kindergarten. They also provided me with all the necessary teaching materials I needed, and assigned me with my very own Chinese assistant to help assist me with any daily life struggles or work issues I encountered.
After having such a wonderful first year, and making some life long friends, it was no surprise that I decided to stay in China for another year and continue teaching for the Company.
Now after two years in China, I have been offered a new teaching position at an outstanding private academy school in Taiwan. Without my teaching experience in China, and without the continued help and support of the Company I don’t think I would have had the confidence to apply for such high teaching positions. I am truly grateful to the Company, and I have loved every second here teaching in China. This has definitely been a life changing experience, and I don’t ever regret saying yes to such a great opportunity.

Thank you for the opportunity to see Beijing! Your help has made it possible for me to experience this city. I would have been well out of my depth if I had come on my own with how little I knew about the language and the area. It was a great advantage to have the backing and support of a group who was willing to guide me through the more confusing aspects of Beijing life.

I chose YiBo because I know it's important to have someone to fall back on when you're living abroad. The agency was really helpful with adjusting to life in Beijing and finding a good school for me. I'm happy with what everything YiBo has done for me. The school I teach at is wonderful, and I can always depend on YiBo if I need help with something.

Just having lived abroad for almost one year has given me a totally different perspective. I also feel that I am a much more worldly individual. I think everyone should live abroad once and just experience another way of being and living.

I chose YiBo because it was recommended to me and my girlfriend through a number of contacts we had in school. Thus far, YiBo has been great in terms of how they've managed problems and issues that have arisen during my time here. Apart from a few minor hiccups along the way, they've dealt with the few problems I've had in a quick and timely fashion. I guess a "thank you" would be in order here, so...thank you.

YiBo has done a good job in keeping their promises, and has done a good job resolvingany issues I've had. Whenever I had any problems, I always knew I could contact YiBo and they'd be there for me- that's something you'll really come to appreciate in China! …. Thank you for everything- It's been a wonderful experience!

From the States, I searched online for a couple of months for a job in Beijing, starting witha google search of "ESL, Beijing." Lots of schools and companies responded initially (most NOT in Beijing) but YiBo was the company that actually followed through. I had never considered teaching in a kindergarten, but it sounded like fun and YiBo sounded very reputable…..I would just like to say THANK YOU for being so reliable and for giving me the awesome opportunity to teach the cutest kids in the world.

The children are fantastic! They are really enthusiastic and cheer me up on a Monday morning. It's a great chance to get to know the kids and have a laugh at work. So far YiBo has been very helpful! I am really happy with the assistant that YiBo has provided us with because she is very kind and helpful. YiBo was very welcoming and made sure that we didn't get lost in our first few days!

I arrived in China with a contract through a different company, but was very disappointed with them. I soon met a friend in Beijing that I trusted and she recommended YiBo to me. I appreciate the comfort they have provided me in knowing that I can always contact someone at the company for help in any matter. Thanks for the great school, too!

China is an interesting place with many wonderful people! Teaching could be just what you're looking for and the results are everlasting. YiBo is a reliable company who supports me whenever I have a difficulty or a language miscommunication.

I feel that YiBo has delivered a fantastic service, providing me with a job that I love, an apartment I adore, and at every stage fulfilling every guarantee they made. YiBo has made my relocation to China both enjoyable and relaxing. A big thank you – YiBo, you’ve been great!
