Tact Kodomomirai Co. Ltd. (incorporating WinBe, Kids Duo and Kids Duo International) has an opening for a Full-Time Instructor in one of our newest schools, Kids Duo advanced, which caters specifically to children with a much higher than average English ability as it looks to develop presentation skills and the ability to think and use English independently to discuss a variety of topics. Located in Aobadai, Yokohama, at our Aobadai branch the position is looking to be filled beginning in summer, 2017. The Aobadai school was established a little under two years ago and we are looking for the right candidate to continue the great start we have had and to help us further develop the concept and curriculum we are using. We are also looking for several staff to fill positions in existing schools with other brands in other areas with the possibility of an immediate start.

We are looking for bright, friendly, professionally minded native-English speaking instructors who share a passion for helping students achieve their English-language goals and enjoy working in a fun learning environment.

Applicants must be enthusiastic to teach energetic lessons, and creative to find new ways of engaging students while teaching to a curriculum. Applicants must have computer skills and have a very high level of literacy, both spoken and written, including neat handwriting and great spelling. Thorough training and materials are provided with continuous on-going training and support throughout the year enabling you to feel confident in your role and to develop your skills as an educator.

Applicants must enjoy working with people of all ages, show an eagerness to learn, and be able to effectively teach children, yet with a professional approach for communicating with parents as well.

An enthusiastic approach to helping organize and run events such as spelling bees, speech contests, and Field trips, is also a must. (a highlight for many instructors throughout the year as they get to see their students excel outside the classroom)

Experience is not necessary, but a university degree is required for visa sponsorship purposes. Teaching qualifications are also a significant plus, but are not essential.

Successful applicants will be expected to play an important role in helping to promote, develop and grow the school initially, creating and building upon a successful, vibrant language school atmosphere, where students thrive.

Start date:

Two weeks of initial training will begin early August or September in Tokyo. (**Housing arrangements are provided at minimal cost during this period if required and training is paid.)

Hours:

5 days/week (often Tuesday-Saturday), 8 hours a day including a 45 minute paid break. Weekdays 13:00 – 21:00, Saturday 10:00 – 18:00 (may differ)

Holidays:

Three main vacations that fall predominantly on the three main holidays in Japan; Golden Week in May, Obon in August, and Christmas/New Years plus 10 paid vacation days after having worked six months.

Company Benefits:

・Visa Sponsorship & Visa Extensions
・Housing Assistance
・Transportation Allowance
・Comprehensive Initial & Ongoing Training
・Incentive Bonuses available
・Professional Curriculum & Teaching Materials
・Career Advancement Opportunities
