** PLEASE READ: In August of 2021, the Chinese Ministry of Education cracked down on for-profit private tutoring institutions within China that cater to children, including online ESL schools. We've marked in red the online schools that cater to Chinese students. Please review carefully though as some of these platforms teach both children and adults, and adult students are not affected by this.

At this time, the fate of some of these online platforms remains unclear, but we have done our best to remove online Chinese schools that have already ceased operation and recruiting.**
