About the city:
What can you say about Beijing, that hasn’t already been said? Every street, every alley, every bridge, market stall, palace, and skyscraper is a National Geographic spread by itself! More ancient than Rome; more cosmopolitan than New York City; more opportunities than any other large city in the world for TEFL certified teachers. That’s Beijing, where over 14 million people swarm and jostle -- many on bicycles -- to earn a living in the shadow of The Great Wall of China. Beijing offers some of the most dynamic culture, rich history, and amazing food in the world. Beijing is the capital of the People's Republic of China. The city is the center of politics, culture, and international exchanges, as well as one of the largest metropolises of industry, finance and trade. Living in Beijing offers an amazing lifestyle for a foreigner teaching English. It’s cheap and has everything you want. The nightlife in Beijing is one of the best in Asia. The TEFL course is located in this city.

Most of the city is still amazingly preserved with cultural relics ranging from the Great Wall to the Forbidden City. . The nightlife: One big difference you can tell whether a city is a metropolis or not is the nightlife, Beijing is the one good example.

When arriving at the airport, keep away from drivers who approach you in the terminal or outside as they will ask for much more than the actual price. There is a taxi line just outside the terminal. Drivers should use a meter - make sure that the driver puts down the flag after you get in. Taking a taxi from the airport to our center costs between RMB 90 and 130 depending on the traffic and time of the day. Bear in mind that keep a printed receipt in case you left something in the taxi. 2. Taking the Airport Express Train to the school. It is very convenient and easy to find the entrance for the Airport Express Line both at T2 and T3. Buy a train ticket (RMB 25/person) at the ticket counter. The train leaves from T3, stops at T2 and you need to get off at Dongzhimen Station (东直门站); then transfer to Line 2 (there are signs all over the place) and get off at Jianguomen Station (建国门站) and lastly transfer to Line 1 and get off at Wangfujing (王府井站) then walk out from Exit A.
