I resigned from a job early in the contract, how bad does that look for my future prospects?

I was teaching in China from 2017 to September 2022, my first school did not reneew my contract after 5.5 years of employment(4 contracts completed with them) and by the end of the year i found a job at another school through Search Associates. during this time the pandemic was takking a toll on my mental health and being isolated and worn down by the covid policy in China and after a few weeks of being at my new job i began to feel i could not stand being in China anymore so i asked my principle if i could resign and he accepted my resignation and we parted ways on good terms. Search Associates insisted i put this time at the school down on my profile and give an explanation why and I did but they have been slow to follow up afterwards.I'm just wondering will recruiters or schools will be undertanding given my circumstances? How bad will it look on my resume?
