DescriptionAre you looking for an exciting opportunity to teach English abroad? At Yaruki Switch Group, one of Japan’s largest private education groups, we offer full-time teaching positions across four unique brands: Kids Duo, WinBe, Kids Duo International, and I Kids Star. Each brand provides a different teaching experience, but we all share the same goal of creating a fun, immersive learning environment where both teachers and students thrive.

- Training: 3-5 weeks of training, combining base training and on-the-job experience, ensuring you’re fully prepared to teach.
- Student Age Range: Student ages vary anywhere from 2 – 14 years old.
- Brands You May Work With:

- WinBe: Focuses on real-life language skills through reading, writing, speaking, and phonics support.
- Kids Duo International: A bilingual kindergarten offering both English and Japanese instruction to develop well-rounded, bilingual learners.
- I Kids Star: A balanced program of English instruction, intellectual training, and physical education to nurture independent, intelligent thinkers.
