説明

Our award-winning Montessori kindergarten is looking for enthusiastic candidates to join our staff of hard-working English teachers in helping kindergarten, elementary and junior high age students become proficient in English.

Fuji Youchien is seeking professional and energetic language teachers who are looking to stay in Japan on a long term basis while educating over 800 students (and growing) at our school in Tachikawa.

Our school utilizes the GrapeSEED curriculum in combination with various events throughout the year to facilitate the learning of children aged 4 and up. Students attend multiple 40 to 60 minute classes a week learning from songs and stories in an immersive English environment. Our goal is for them to attain fluency over a number of years in a similar way to how they learn their first language, with our students showing excellent results. Teachers work closely with the children in and outside of class time to provide English education and conversation in a wide variety of contexts.


REQUIREMENTS

★ Native English speakers only (North American English preferred).
☆ Valid working visa (Specialist in Humanities/International Services, Permanent Resident, Dependent) and/or Bachelor's Degree and currently residing in Japan.
★ Experience with language education and children preferred but not necessary.
☆ Career-minded with strong understanding of Japanese culture and expectations.
★ Punctual, reliable, creative and energetic.
☆ Excellent time management and organizational skills.


EMPLOYMENT DETAILS

☆ We need teachers for the new school year beginning in April 2022.
★ Schedule times vary but are all 40 hour week Mon-Fri with occasional Saturday classes.
☆ Several weekend events throughout the year. Some events might involve staying overnight.
★ Full training in the GrapeSEED curriculum with ongoing support.
☆ ¥100,000 re-signing bonus (after completing a full school year starting in April) increasing by ¥100,000 each time you re-contract up to ¥500,000.
★ ¥200,000 mid-year travel bonus paid in July.
☆ Commuting fees are reimbursed but the teacher must live within an hour from the school.
★ 4 weeks paid vacation per year (set dates during school holidays in summer and winter).
☆ Working visa sponsorship and renewal available.
★ Teachers may be asked to teach late classes until 19:30 four days a week, or classes until 20:30 two days a week. Candidates must be available for either.
☆ Teachers work with classes from kindergarten to junior high school age. Adaptability to teaching different ages is necessary.
★ Depending on various circumstances, lessons might occasionally be taught on Zoom for which the teacher teaches from home using their own devices.


START DATE

☆ Positions start from April 2022 with an online training of the GrapeSEED curriculum provided in March or sooner.


YOUR APPLICATION

Please submit your resume and cover letter through the Gaijinpot website. In addition to introducing yourself, your cover letter should respond to the following points:

1. What is your current availability?

2. Finish times for classes vary from 19:30 to 20:30. Teachers need to live within an hour transport of our campus and you may need to commute home in the middle of the day for Zoom classes in the evening. If you live more than an hour away, would you be interested in relocating for the position?

3. Our school currently teaches English to over 800 students using the GrapeSEED curriculum. To have teachers become proficient in this teaching method it generally takes a couple of years and a lot of dedication. Do you have an idea of how long you are looking to remain in Japan and do you consider teaching English as the direction you would like your career to go in the long term?

4. With such a high student number, working at Fuji Kindergarten is highly rewarding but also quite demanding of its teachers. This isn't your ordinary Kindergarten. Staff need to be punctual and well organized. They need to put together dynamic and interesting lessons while balancing a busy schedule. You need to have the ability to keep track of multiple things that will be asked of you each week. Do you consider yourself to be well organized? Please give an example of how you successfully managed a busy and/or stressful time in a previous job.

5. We have a strong preference for teachers with a wide variety of interests and skills. Outside of teaching, what kind of hobbies or studies do you pursue? Many of our teachers enjoy playing music, cooking, learning craft skills like tailoring and leather working and play sports or video games. Many of these things translate into points of engagement we can use to connect better with our students.

6. To the best of your understanding, please describe how a child acquires and learns their first language. What things are important to consider in teaching them a second language?

7. Finally, what is your teaching philosophy? In other words, what roles do you think a language teacher is supposed to fulfill, what are your goals and how do you achieve them?


RECRUITMENT PROCESS

★ Submit your proof-read resume and cover letter. As this is a position for teaching English, applications with poor grammar and spelling will be rejected.
☆ After receiving your resume and cover letter we will screen to determine if minimum requirements have been met.
★ For prospective candidates first round interviews will be contacted to arrange a short phone interview. Please provide your phone number.
☆ Successful candidates will be invited to a second round interview at our school's location in Tachikawa to which you'll be asked to bring residence card, passport, copies of qualifications and letters of reference.
