do i need to leave china if i switch from a teaching visa to a student x type?

Question

I'm currently teaching in China.  Starting in September, I want to study Chinese in China.  Do I need to leave China in order to get a student X type?  What else do I need to do in order to get the student X type?  I think the school I'm teaching at is going to help me to switch to studying at the same school.Thanks in advance for your reply

Mikee, you can try to convert your current work Z type to a student X type at the exit and entry administration of the local PSB within China. If it can be done, you don't need to leave China.You should prepare the relevant documents including your passport and its copy, the application form, a passport-style photo, valid registration form of temporary residence, admission letter and JW form from the school as well as the physical examination record.
