We are seeking highly motivated educators to teach English as the sole instructor in the classrooms of elementary schools or secondary schools in Japan.

This unique opportunity is for bright teachers eager to enrich their teaching skills while realizing the dream of exploring a foreign country.

The Senior Teacher will be responsible for the effective running of the academic side of the Summer School programme, managing a team of approximately 10 EFL teachers, including carrying out observations and providing feedback, as well as providing academic advice and weekly INSET sessions. Candidates with availability for the full 8 weeks are strongly preferred for this role.

The primary responsibilities are the preparation and effective delivery of EFL classes on our Summer School programme, through project-based learning. Teachers can expect to teach two 90-minutes classes per day for five days per week, and to supervise and accompany students on one full-day excursion per week. For residential staff, duties will also include assisting on the social programme on some evenings and carrying out pastoral duties, such as bedtime and wake-up.
