JOB DESCRIPTION:
We are going to hire a few English speakers starting as assistant teachers. In the first few months, you will learn how to teach and then will move up to working as a main teacher. You will be working with groups of children aged 2.5-11 years old.

The morning class is for younger kids and serves as a preschool/kindergarten. In the afternoon, the school serves as an after-school program for older children. During your training you will learn about the structure of our school.


COMPANY CULTURE:
Our policy is to have an average of 1 teacher for each 5 kids, this means you will always have a relatively low class size. This is to give our students the attention they deserve which fosters better growth and learning.

As English Teacher, you will be responsible for classroom management, planning and delivering lessons, basic administration, teaching with aids such as flashcards and PowerPoint, and individual reading lessons.

The daily mixture of relaxed classes and fun activities makes each day something to look forward to for both teachers and students alike, many of our teachers say they are learning more from the kids than kids are learning from them. Helping children widen their view of the world is one of the strongest building blocks to improving the future.

Organization: Wings Kids Family operated by World Wide Wings Co., Ltd.

About Our Company:
World Wide Wings Co., Ltd., provides an English Education service for 2.5-11.0 year-old Kids, named Wings Kids Family. Wings Kids Family is located near Ikejiri Ohashi St. in Meguro-Ku and is a new type of English school that provides early English education in Japan. These days 8-10 teachers take care of about 40-50 kids every day. Our business model correlates with one of Japan's social issues, the lack of public child care services. We do this by providing the service in the form of a pre-school, and afterschool program. The structure of our business model increases the amount of English exposure to children, providing an average of 50-60 hours of exposure a month. The English levels of our students show obvious improvements; especially compared to the general English levels in Japan. As of March 2022, more than 250 students are learning English at our school in total. You can see our staff's comments from the website link about how they feel working at our school.

At Wings Kids Family, we create a ‘second home’ environment designed as a living space completely in English, despite being located in Japan. As soon as the kids enter our school all communication is supposed to be in English. Instead of an indirect teaching method simulated by a textbook, the children are able to experience life in English, carrying out daily activities immersed in the language. Our school's design is to focus on every moment to be a chance for kids to circulate English input and output. However, in addition to the English environment, we use some direct teaching methods to help the kids learn as well. Flashcards or slides on the television are used to show a picture, the English word, and the way it sounds at the same time. The vocabulary and phrases learned in class are then used on our walks, or at the park (Look! The white dog is so cute!). This circulation of language helps the kids store more English expressions until they can eventually use English as a communication tool.
