“I completed my MA in International Education while teaching full-time. The program was entirely online and the workload was manageable. Within a year of graduating, I was offered an Academic Director position — a role I’d been chasing for five years. My salary went from ¥24,000 to ¢42,000 RMB per month.”

Rachel P.
Primary Teacher → Curriculum Coordinator
Bilingual School, Shenzhen
“The TESOL Master’s gave me the theoretical foundation I was missing. My school sponsored part of my tuition because they saw the direct benefit to their curriculum. I’m now leading the English department’s curriculum redesign and mentoring three junior teachers — something I never imagined when I first arrived in China.”
