For the benefit of people contemplating coming to China to teach English, I think there is one important point that needs to be clarified
Training centres usually get the 'rough-end' here - and often rightly so
Sadly it's a classic case of the few dragging down the reputation of the many....
Essentially, a talking-dog could get a job teaching English in a training centre (if it were a native English-speaking, talking-dog)
Training centres are often hard-work and you 'lose' your weekends because Sat and Sun are their busiest days and most evenings you will work until 7pm or 9pm.....but.......
They are not ALL bad.....
The biggest difference between a mainstream school and a training centre (in China) is this.....
Schoolkids MUST attend school...students in training centres often attend because they WANT to, so attitudes are different
Schoolkids want to play on their phone and ignore you after you have put in countless hours making PPT's
Students in training centres will listen and behave much better (generally)
As always, do your research on the company before you sign a contract
