Teach in Japan

At Tamaki TEFL Recruitment (TTR), we represent one of the top language schools in Japan. This is a private language school position so the class sizes are much smaller than what you would find in a public school. The teaching style is very active and the use of songs, flashcards, and games are all part of the lesson. If you have a lot of energy, this is the right match for you!
This role is teaching young learners from the age range of 2 years to 15 years old, but most of the lessons would focus on 6-12-year-old students. There sometimes may also be some lessons with children that are 1 year old and for these lessons, the parents will be there too. The class sizes are relatively small and are usually 6-10 students per group. We are seeking teachers who are genuinely enthusiastic and passionate about teaching young learners and who have energy, as you'll need it! Expect to sing lots of songs, do a bit of dancing and play high-energy activities with your students.

Please also note that we have an alternative role teaching at a public school in Japan at various levels (elementary, junior high and high school) where this would be as an Assistant Language Teacher (ALT). The schedule is Monday to Friday with the weekends off. We require teachers to hold a valid driver’s license that issues and International Driving Permit (IDP) in the correct format under the 1949 Geneva Convention – for this role, teachers are expected to drive in Japan to their schools. If you are interested in the public sector role, please note that TTR will recommend you to the company in Japan who would then proceed with the interview stages and onboarding process from there.
