People who have downloaded 600+ English Schools in Taiwan simply love it! And you will love it, too.

What can I say about it... It lists more than 600 English schools located in 117 cities and towns (yes, there's no mistake here, it's really 117!) across the entire island of Taiwan in all the counties. (Taipei, Taichung, Hualien, Taitung, Nantou, Yunlin, Hsinchu, Pingtung, and Miaoli).

The advantages of having 600+ are infinite, but I guess the most important two are:

1. It's (extremelly) easy to find schools!
The schools' addresses are written in both English and Chinese. You need the Chinese address to find it in Google maps. All you do is copy and paste the address of a school and paste it in Google maps. (The process is very easy and I tell you how to do it in the eBook.) With this tool, you can now easily find schools by yourself and start teaching English in Taiwan quickly.

2. Most of the schools are NOT listed online.
Well, actually they are, but only in Chinese. So what does that mean for you? It means that most prospective foreign English teachers looking for jobs can't find these schools. Understand this my friend: THEY ARE NOT LISTED ONLINE!! Armed with this exclusive list of more than 600 English schools, finding a teaching job in Taiwan will be much easier.
