Non-native doesn't mean unqualified. In fact I know plenty of native english speakers whose only qualification to work here is their passport but they don't know how their language works or how to teach it. i also know plenty of non-native speakers of english who were smart enough to learn the language and know exactly what the process of learning that language looks like and how to facilitate it. Some schools can't find native English speakers but not because they ask for more money. the actual reason is that there are never enough of them here in China. It's also untrue they ask for higher payment. I'm a non-native teacher of English and I make 16k while two other teachers who work for the same kindergarten (both american) make 12 each.
