The Job

We are now holding interviews for English teachers at our primary school based in the city of Jiaxing in the east coast of China in Zhejiang province. If you are a dynamic teacher, have an interest in teaching young learners aged 7 to 10 years old and can deliver learner centered, communicative lessons then we are interested in speaking with you.

Our public school is modern with up to date teaching materials and equipment including projectors and computers. Various student interactions are encouraged in class such as group work, pair work, role plays, project work as well as more traditional teaching methods to add variety to the classes and help create a fun and relaxed learning environment.

All new teachers will receive training on arrival and will be introduced to the school and teaching methods.

Teaching Materials

Teaching materials and resources are provided by the school and are targeted to the age of the students being taught. Materials follow the Chinese national school curriculum and focus on developing all four skills – speaking, listening, reading and writing. Teachers are encouraged to adapt and supplement the materials where need be to ensure classes are engaging and interesting.

Jiaxing – The city

Jiaxing is situated on the Yangtze Delta, on the east coast of China, Zhejiang province, a short distance from Shanghai. It is a medium sized city well known for its beauty and tranquility. South Lake is an ideal place to stroll around and visit the ruins of the 10^thcentury misty Rain Tower. Jiaxing is a compact, green, yet increasingly prosperous city interlaced with rivers, canals and lakes. In the surrounding area are a number of ancient river towns with small canals running though them.
