Teach English in Guangzhou – A City with Historical Context
Originally settled under the name Panyu as early as 214 B.C.E., Guangzhou has served as one of the most important cities in China throughout modern times. In fact, during the 19th century, Guangzhou was considered one of the top three most important cities in the world due to its strategic trading location. Today, while teaching in Guangzhou, you will see why it remains a significant Chinese city – striding into modern times while still honoring its ancient and colonial pasts.
The city’s close proximity to Hong Kong and Macau lets Guangzhou serve as a great jumping off location for some exciting international traveling without having to buy a plane ticket. Only in Guangzhou can teachers boast waking up in China, having a dim sum lunch in Hong Kong, playing a few blackjack hands in Macau before getting home in time for dinner.
