Description

Do you love spending time with kids? Do you feel that kids respond better to exciting, energetic activities and lessons? At TISG, we believe that kids will learn most effectively in an environment that is fun and active, so these are our foremost goals when teaching our students. If you love bringing smiles to children's faces, and making them laugh with your silliness and jokes, then this may be the right position for you.

IDEAL CANDIDATE: We are looking for a confident, dedicated, and energetic teacher to fill a fun and dynamic EFL position at kindergartens around the Chiba area. Candidates must have a university degree, a minimum of 1 year of experience working with children, and be passionate, energetic and hard working.

GENERAL POSITION DETAILS: Positions are Monday to Friday, approximately 9am to 5pm schedules, and involve going to a set weekly schedule of kindergartens to teach English classes to groups of twenty to thirty children aged between 3 and 6 years of age in the morning, and classes of up to fifteen students aged between 3 and 11 years of age (classes are divided by age group) in the afternoon. The maximum teaching time per day is set at 5 hours (this equates to two hours of teaching in the morning and no more than four 45 minute classes in the afternoon).

SPECIFIC POSITION DETAILS: This is a long term coverage position for a teaching taking paternity leave. Once the teacher taking leave returns, provided the coverage spell has been successful, we will offer the covering teacher a choice of vacancies we have available at the time, and relocation support will be offered should that be necessary. Full details will be discussed during the interview.

LOCATION: The kindergartens on this schedule are situated in Chiba, accessed from or near to the following stations: Keisei Katsutadai, Toke, Ichikawa-Ono, Tsuga, Nishi-Shiroi, and Narita-Yukawa stations. Each schedule would be ideal for someone already living in Chiba or the surrounding area, or those who are happy to relocate.

START DATE: The start date for all positions is October 1st 2024 or as soon as the right candidate is available.

RENUMERATION and BENEFITS: A starting wage of ¥270,000 per month for a 3 month probationary period, rising to ¥290,000 for the remainder of the contract, plus a generous contract completion bonus.

Paid vacation days are:
- Saturdays and Sundays
- All public holidays (though work may be required on January 13th and February 24th due to make up lessons)
- Winter break

WE OFFER:
- one of the highest pay rates in the industry
- enrollment into Japan's social insurance and pension system (shakai-houken)
- excellent training
- online support site
- a structured curriculum that also allows for teacher creativity
- a team of 10 trainers and managers to provide ongoing support
- transportation is fully reimbursed
- relocation assistance

RECRUITMENT PROCESS: Resumes will be screened to check that minimum requirements are met. Candidates will be contacted to arrange web-based interviews via Google Meet. Candidates will be asked to provide copies of their residence card, passports, qualifications, and letters of reference. Following the first round of interviews successful candidates will be invited to teach a short trial activity at one of our Tokyo schools. For candidates further away, a video activity can be recorded and sent for us to view. Successful candidates at this stage are offered a second round interview, one again conducted online. A final decision will be made and the successful candidate will start on the start date or as soon as they are able to.

We look forward to receiving your application.
