Description

If you've ever wanted to teach English in Japan, we'd like to invite you to apply for an opportunity to do so this coming spring. Borderlink, Inc. is seeking adventurous individuals to join us as Assistant Language Teachers (ALTs). Our ALTs work in public elementary and junior high schools across the Kanto area and beyond.

ALTs generally teach between 3 to 5 classes a day, depending on the school schedule and frequency of the ALT's visit. Working alongside a Japanese teacher, ALTs follow a practice known as "Team Teaching" where responsibilities are shared. As a native speaker, your role is to provide a kind of insight, knowledge and assistance that your students can't get from a text book.

We also believe that teaching English is about more than just instruction or drilling; it's about building bridges between countries through a unique kind of shared experience. As an ALT, you have the opportunity to join school clubs, festivals, and extra-curricular activities. We can interact with students and teachers between classes. We eat lunch with them, play with them during recess, and join them in cleaning time at school. Ultimately, you will become part of something important as you help enrich the school community and shape the future of your students.

With the increased focus the Japanese education system has placed on English during the run-up to the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, the need for high-quality ALTs has risen. Although prior teaching experience and Japanese ability are not required, they are highly sought after. Cities want the best. Here at Borderlink, we'll work to help you be the best. Our extensive support system includes:

-Training: We provide an orientation & training session for new employees to get them acclimated to Japan and the Borderlink teaching system. This training continues with seasonal sessions hosted by our team of veteran trainers and even specialized 1-on-1 training when required.

-24/7 Help & Support Line: We're here to assist you- however we can, whenever we can. We also provide help with Japanese translation on request.

-Immigration & Visa Support: We will help facilitate your entry to Japan and support your ability to work with us here.

-Banking & Accommodations: Moving from overseas is a big commitment. If you need help finding an apartment, we can connect you with the help you need. We will also help you open a Japanese Bank account and give you guidance in handling other essentials.

If this sounds like the opportunity you've been waiting for, we're waiting to hear from you! Please apply today, and thank you!

*Already in Japan? You're welcome to apply! Part-time positions are also available; please see the application form on our website.

*Only those who pass the initial screening will be contacted for an interview.
