Description

Yaruki Switch Group is currently looking for energetic and dedicated Native English teachers for our Kids Duo schools in Shiga Prefecture!

Located adjacent to Kyoto Prefecture, Shiga is only a 20-minute train ride away from some of Japan’s most world-renowned sightseeing landmarks in the historical epicenter of traditional Japanese culture. That’s not to say, however, that Shiga lacks its own share of culturally significant and naturally beautiful destinations - whether you choose to spend your spare time taking in the breathtaking vistas and white sand beaches of Lake Biwa (the largest freshwater lake in Japan), or at Hikone Castle, one of only five historical Japanese castles considered a National Treasure, Shiga has more than enough cultural landmarks to keep any lover of Japanese culture & history quite busy. Osaka can be reached in under 45 minutes by train if you’re interested in experiencing the more modern, metropolitan side of Japan as well. If you manage to work up an appetite from all the sightseeing, don’t forget to treat yourself to some of the region’s well-known specialties including the traditional staple funa-zushi, sourced from Lake Biwa itself, or its famous high quality wagyū Ōmi beef!


Benefits & Compensation
- Starting salary of ¥250,000/month. (Career advancement opportunities available.)
- Teachers receive fully-paid comprehensive initial training in the Tokyo area, during which accommodation and transportation reimbursement can be provided if necessary.
- Usable and transferable experience & skills gained via regular teaching workshops held throughout the year.
- Ten paid vacation days a year (after 6 months of service), in addition to national holidays.
- Work-related commuting costs reimbursed.
- Social Security & Health Insurance provided.
- Visa sponsorship opportunities available, overseas applicants welcome!

Working Hours
- Regular working hours fall within the hours of 9:00 – 20:30, 5 days a week (generally Monday through Friday.)
- Typical shifts include 9:30-18:30, 10:00-19:00, 11:00-20:00, etc.
- Working shifts are 9 hours per day; this means 8 working hours and a 1-hour lunch break.
- Occasional Special Events held on Saturdays & Sundays (Open Schools, Spelling Bees, Recitals, etc.)



The Kids Duo Method

Kids Duo represents a fresh new approach to the language learning process, focusing on creating a solid foundation of enthusiasm and self-confidence in speaking via interactive games and activities. Our motto is “Play in English, Learn in English,” and with this mentality in mind we strive to create a fun, safe, and comfortable environment in which our students learn usable, real life English – often without even realizing it!

As a Native English Teacher, you are the centerpiece of a Kids Duo school. Kids Duo teachers work with their school's Japanese Bilingual staff, administrative staff, and other Kids Duo teacher to coordinate and conduct fun and interactive lessons in which students can practice speaking and interacting in a 100% English environment. While Kids Duo has a set curriculum, teachers are actively encouraged to grow and expand on these foundations to create truly unique and personalized lessons; allowing ample creative freedom to inject passion and enthusiasm into your class. No one day is the same at Kids Duo, and you can expect to cover a broad variety of subjects including Music & Dance, Science, Social Studies, and Arts & Crafts - all of which are conducted in English, allowing students to be exposed to a plethora of unique and valuable English vocabulary.
