PE English Teacher of GIRLS lessons for an Immersion Program at J&S High School (expired)

Thank you for your interest in working for Project Genius, a concern of Korakuen English Centre. We aim to be the premier English language consultancy firm for private secondary schools in Japan. Our client is looking for a teacher who can teach physical education classes.

Our client school for this position is a private school located in Saitama city. The school consists of both a junior and senior high school. One aspect of its curriculum is having teachers with native English level proficiency teach some non-EFL classes in English, including music, home economics, and PE.

We currently have two PE teachers at the school, one who teaches boys’ PE classes and one who teaches girls’ PE classes. Our client plans to add an additional teacher who can teach GIRLS’ PE CLASSES, bringing the number of PE teachers from our agency to three. Although this teacher will also have to each some EFL classes, we will prioritize interest and ability in teaching physical education classes over EFL background and experience for this position.

Our instructors are paid 280,000 yen a month. (This is non-negotiable.) Classes are held from Monday to Friday all day as well as EVERY OTHER SATURDAY MORNING. (Please be aware of this Saturday schedule when considering applying.)

Of course, transportation expenses are fully reimbursed, as well. We want our instructors to be proactive in solving problems but our experienced executive team is always available to our instructors to provide constructive advice, feedback, and support.

We are looking for someone who currently lives within a reasonable door-to-door commuting distance to the school campus, which within walking distance of Minami Urawa station on JR Musashino and Keihin Tohoku lines. Interviews are held in the center of Tokyo at our office near Ichigaya station.
