My husband and I have been working and living in China for 3 and ½ years now. We worked for one year and then renewed our contract for two more years and just recently signed up for two more. We have worked for AEIP for that entire time and we highly recommend them. AIEP is a great company to sign up with especially if you prefer to work in a smaller city in China.

I am not sure of the cause for all of the complaints, for some people life is hard and full of woe. I can only speak from our experience, so here goes:

1. AIEP has always met the conditions of our contracts and the head office employs honest, hardworking people who are there for you if you need support and assistance.

2. The company has always provided professional, highly qualified Teaching Assistants who provide support for us in the classroom and assistance with the life situation of living in a foreign country.

3. We have worked in three different schools for the company and have been very happy with the location, the school facilities and the school staff in each one.

4. Anytime unforeseen situations arise which interfere with our teaching schedule, the company has been supportive and flexible.

There are many differences between China and Western countries. China has its own culture and it is not the right place for everyone but it is becoming an increasingly modern country with friendly people. And the economy in China is booming and still has an overwhelming need for Native English speaking Teachers.

My husband and I like to travel and have new experiences and AIEP has been a good company to work for while doing that.
