Housing in China

Housing in ChinaThe majority of English schools in China provide their teachers with free housing. Some schools that offer higher starting salaries may exclude housing, be sure to read your contract completely. We highly recommend contracts that include housing for your first job.

Teacher apartments in China are usually either on campus or very close. These apartments will be furnished with basic necessities- a western style bed, some chairs, a table, a bureau, a TV, a fridge, a washing machine and perhaps a VCR and or a computer and a western style toilet. The only places where you will experience traditional ‘squat’ style toilets- basically a porcelain covered hole in the floor- is in the countryside and in some public restrooms (but these are becoming less and less common). I repeat - you will NOT have a squat toilet in your apartment- you will have a normal, western style flush toilet.

Valerie and Griffin Stewart “We wanted to take a moment to thank you for your help in getting us to South Korea! The transition could not have been smoother and we have been so impressed with the entire process. The staff at Footprints has been amazing. They are always knowledgeable and professional, as well as friendly and personable. We really felt that all of our questions were answered. We have already begun recommending Footprints to our friends! Thanks again!”
