Honestly, I don't think teaching English in China is a way to get your family financially ahead. I also have two kids and am on what's considered a pretty goos salary as a teacher. However, it mainly covers the bills and anything that's left over goes towards the kids. It's hard to get a part time job to top up my income because I'm pigenholed into teaching English. It's difficult to save money,schooling is quite expensive (and not great quality) and the environment is not good. If your kids are currently in a western country like the US or Australia, it'd be better for them to stay because they will have a much better life there. Have you considered looking at high schools n your area to see if they need ESL teachers, or for any international private schools like EF or Wall Street close to you? Try all your options before thinking about China.
