The Job

Our school is now holding interviews for motivated, professional English young learner teachers. Our students are from kindergarten to middle school level, aged from 3 to 14 years old.

We invite you to join our large team, currently made up of 25 native English teachers and 45 local teachers. All English classes use our K-12 copyrighted materials and methods from the United States. In order to learn how to speak with a pure American accent, we utilize a special pedagogy to teach our students. Our classes, teaching materials, teaching methods, and evaluation systems correspond directly with many of our sister schools in the United States. With all lesson plans in place, teachers are free to focus on their teaching, with minimum lesson planning time.

Teaching assistance are on hand to help with classroom management and translation when need be. We put a focus on a variety of teaching styles including dictation, reading, workbook tasks, composition, songs, pronunciation, debates, presentations and more. Classes run from Monday to Friday so teachers have weekends as their days off.

Beijing – The City

Beijing, capital of the People’s Republic of China, is the nation’s political, economic, cultural, educational and international trade and communication center. Located in northern China, close to the port city of Tianjin and partially surrounded by Hebei province, Beijing continues to be an exciting place for all things music, fashion and art with plenty of events and shows to attend.

There is a thriving expat community in Beijing, with the Sanlitun area being a popular destination for both expats and trendy locals to mix and mingle over drinks. One of the most important landmarks in the city is Tiananmen Square. This is the world’s largest public square and a must see for all visitors from abroad and from other places in China.
