My wife was involved with the local Chinese School for a couple years after coming to the USA, however classes tended to be small, and it was only a couple hours every Saturday, so only paid $500 or so per term Spring or Fall. This was more of a volunteering thing.

 

You could always ask schools or colleges if they will post that you offer being a tutor. You can always be a tutor.

 

Check around Orlando to see if there is a Chinese school.

Thanks ,but they all said I need a bachelor degree on Chinese language and arts at least, I dont have one ,and I dont have any experience either.I think I should try personal teaching in the beginning ,like one by one .But I dont know how to find that kind of person who is looking for a personal Chinese teacher .I hope I can post ads somewhere that way people can see .Anyways ,thanks again for you help

Although certification is probably not required, it would be good to get it. My wife was going to do a particular program in Beijing but then decided to just wait to see if that opportunity was even available here. BTW: We are in Orlando too.

If you want to tutor, just post ads on the bulletin boards at the local universities in Orlando. You can also post on Craigslist.

 

My wife likes little kids, so she just walked into a bunch of daycare centers, introduced herself and asked for an application, and now she teaches Chinese at one. They give her basically as many hours as she wants.

Your not going to have time to tutor anyone. You are going to be busy going to school full time 12+ credits AND working a part time job for about 20 hours a week. I think school enough alone is going to keep you busy since you will need to translate some of the words in the book. Lets not get ahead of ourselves here.

 

Oh not to mention, you already have a job, it is waiting for you for when you come back.
