I have been an employee at Waijiaoyi for the past year. It is a startup which has its headquarters in Haidian, Beijing. The company offers two separate online platforms. One where teachers may be employed from their home and can work online using their computer and one that requires the physical presence of the teacher in Beijing. I am occupied in the second of the two.

The post is particularly interesting because it is a blend of teaching and acting. It moves away from the traditional classroom. The teachers work in a green room and are projected onto a virtual reality background which is then broadcasted to schools across China. During the broadcast students who are online are called to interact with the foreign teacher. In turn, they are also facilitated in their learning, by the help of a second teacher who supports them with her physical presence in the classroom.

All in all, my experience from working with this company has been overwhelmingly positive. Bearing in mind that it is a startup, teacher feedback is always welcome, changes are always being made so as to facilitate foreign staff and there is an obvious development that shows a promising future. Another important point is that experienced and hardworking teachers are awarded accordingly and there is much incentive in the direction of professional development. Coming to work here was a good choice and not only was I amply compensated in a financial sense but also in the way I have developed as a teacher in view of developing educational technologies.

I have been working with Waijiaoyi for a while now. They have really gone above and beyond for me. The office life is much easier when you have collegues who appreciate your talents and what you contribute to the project. The hours are not strenuous and management is reasonable and strive to assist whenever we feel tired or drained. They work to ensure we are comfortable in our positions and that we are taken care of by ensuring we have beverages and places to rest when we are not working. I really enjoy the training we receive when joining and on an ongoing basis, it helps me to broaden my skills while also ensuring we bond as a team. The work is the best part - Waijiaoyi are always moving above and beyond and reaching new milestones. They encourage us to be creative and support this by buying whatever we need to make our dream come alive in the green room. They listen to ideas and implement them quickly, always happy to provide praise and credit.

I have been happily teaching at Waijiaoyi's Beijing office for 10 months now. One thing I really appreciate about the staff is their warmness and disciplined attitude towards work. Wow, I never thought that someone could be so workaholic. With this kind of atmosphere in the office, I am challenged to be at my best at all times.The support system we get are way beyond and I believe it's one reason that brings out the best in us.

The flat where I stay is cozy and perfect. It is just few blocks away from the office and the environment is clean and generally safe. The foods in China are delicious! There are tons of dishes that you'd love to try again and again.

I thought it would be so hard to adapt to a new culture that is quite the opposite in the west but it was actually not. China is a go-to country for teachers around across the globe. This is a whole new world that you would love to be into.

I have been working with Waijiaoyi (WJY) at the Beijing office for 6 months now, and on the plane back from a trip home for holiday I was genuinely excited to be coming back to work. The teacher role at WJY is not quite like any regular teaching job, its more like you are hosting a TV show. You have potentially hundreds of students watching you at any time which makes the work extremely important. And if you are so inclined, makes you feel a bit like a star.

Overall, every day is focused on getting ready for the classes you are going to be teaching. We aren’t teaching/broadcasting for the majority of the working day and the classes are only 25 minutes long.

The focus of our lessons is to make an entertaining and engaging experience where students learn by staying fixed through games, chants, songs, and captivating storylines. In many respects, we are similar to Sesame Street or Blue’s Clues.

When not in the VR room and on camera the atmosphere in the office is light, friendly, warm, and personal. There is a massive team upstairs working on everything leading up to and surrounding the lessons that the key handful of teachers deliver. So sometimes when you make a mistake you are letting quite a few people down.

In other respects, when you need assistance with anything; your visa, ordering things off of the internet, buying a phone etc. The Chinese colleagues in the office are right there to help you with anything.

When I decided to work at Waijiaoyi, it changed my daily routine. I love what I'm doing everyday. I can take care of my family while working and earning. Aside from that, the staff are really approachable and give assistance right away when I needed help. The company pays well and they give right benefits. That's why I will never regret working in this company.

Teaching has never been so fun. From the comfort of my own home, I can enjoy various opportunities for both personal and professional development. Not to mention their reasonable compensation and bonus packages.

Waijiaoyi is a good company. I can really recommend it. I must say it brings the best in new and young e- educators. It gives the non-native speakers a great chance to show the innate ability to converse in English not because it is our mother tongue but we learned it through our education. That is why as teacher I don’t only teach the proper diction, pronunciation, spelling and enunciation but I also introduce the value of education. That it is not a thing to be neglected but should be given the utmost importance. Education gives us the discipline and helps us to be happy of what we have no matter how little it is.
