MY English School seeks English language instructors to teach in our Hyogo-area or Yamagata-area schools. Positions are contingent on the schools' upcoming openings and needs. Training will be scheduled on agreed dates during the month before starting regular teaching.
Work days:
Tuesday-Saturday
Duties:
A MY instructor teaches English language to students of all ages, cooperates with other teachers and staff, actively participates in and seeks out professional development opportunities, helps at school events, and is a contributing member of a professional group of teachers with high standards for education.
We offer:
- 270,000 ~ 290,000 yen monthly compensation, depending on adequate, internationally-accredited qualifications and experience
- 15 flexible, paid holidays annually
- Professional development opportunities
- Group membership in JALT
- Opportunities for leadership and promotion
- School run by certified teacher who understands your needs
- Lifestyle support when desired (i.e., apartment setup, language support, etc.)
MY English School succeeds as a company through the success of its teachers. In addition to the initial one-month training period, MY provides 7 whole-day, full-staff training sessions throughout the year. All instructors receive group membership in JALT (Japan Association for Language Teaching), as well as the opportunity to receive grants to attend teaching conferences throughout Japan.
As well as providing opportunities for instructors to develop as teachers, MY also strives to allow teachers to build skill sets outside of teaching. MY English School teachers are proud to see their contribution to the school’s growth through the completion of projects related to curriculum development, teacher training, hiring, and leadership.
We expect:
Candidates must love teaching and be able to work with others to create an engaging, student-centered, language-rich learning environment in the classroom. Candidates must also have a strong desire to improve themselves professionally. While instructors have considerable independence in the classroom, we have demanding expectations for quality teaching and teaching methods. You will be a contributing member of a strong and supportive community of teachers who care about being the best at what we do. You will also be in a position to help shape the development of a growing school. MY English School is exceptional in its ability to provide both strong professional and personal support to its teachers, which is why we boast an average yearly teacher retention rate over 85 percent.
