Have you ever thought of traveling a country which gives you the chance of earning and gaining experience which can be directed towards the noble cause of contributing to the society through teaching English? If your long cherished dream of being a teacher all your life has remained only a dream and if you are willing to visit China for teaching English to a different set of students – then you have hit the right website - Special China Project was awaiting your attention! Merging with the new culture, people, food & environment of a country - as varied as China - is an experience of a lifetime and impossible to forget.

All you need, to be a part of this project, is to be a native English speaker above 21 years of age and a Degree.

Why should you do the SCP?
The basic difference between TESOL / TEFL Course of ATI and that of other institute is that in case of the latter, a TESOL trainee is left alone after the completion of the course, being compelled to bear the brunt of applying for a job for months in a foreign country, trying to get paper work while searching for a job, which turn out to be a cumbersome process for them. On the contrary, SCP led by ATI arranges everything
for an enrolled candidate from the time he / she lands at Shanghai / Shenzhen Airport to completing the course, even taking the responsibility of his / her 6 month paid internship, saving them the time and pain of aimlessly looking for a job. All you have to do is to plan for your trip, buy your ticket and the rest is taken care by ATI. Therefore, the outcome is you not only get certified as a TESOL Trained Teacher but also get ATI to as a support to back your resume which helps further in capturing better jobs in future.

After the SCP program you have the option of continuing as a regular school teacher or you can be absorbed as corporate trainers, Language School trainers, Voice and accent trainers and Soft skill trainers. With the growing need for learning English in Non English speaking nations the demand far exceeds the supply. So there is never a dearth of teaching opportunities for TESOL trained teachers.
