Yellow River School (dongying City, Shandong Province)

Yellow River Bilingual School has been employing foreign teachers for more than ten years and the foreign teaching department is run by a Canadian who has been at the school for six years. As a result of our experience we can guarantee a level of assistance and understanding that many schools in China simply can not. We are a normal school (not a training center or after school program) and as such we work a typical Monday-Friday morning schedule with all holidays and summer vacations off, just like schools in North America. Below you can view some basic information about our school and an overview of the contract we offer. This information can also be viewed along with pictures, teacher testimonials from all of our current and returning teachers, a full contract, as well as information about our curriculum and life in Dongying on our website at:http://yellowriverbilingual.org/index.htmlI hope you take the time to look around our website and consider us for your teaching abroad experience.
