The Job

Our school is now holding interviews for English teachers to join our company. We are seeking qualified, experienced young learner teachers who can deliver effective and enjoyable lessons to our students aged 2 to 12 years old.

We are a private language school, located in Beijing and partnered with Fieldston School in New York. We now have three schools in Beijing. Our focus is on building confidence in our students’ all round English abilities and creating a happy classroom environment.

Our classes consist of two sessions. The first session is dedicated to conversational English and use Oxford University Press’s “Open Sesame”, a popular course that features the characters from Sesame Street, along with the very large collection of supplementary video, audio and other materials. The second session is dedicated to phonics and reading, we use “Reading A-Z” and “Starfall”.

Classes sizes are capped at 12 students per class and teachers will have a local teaching assistant to help with classroom management. Our classrooms all feature cutting edge touch screen interactive whiteboards which allow for a whole new dimension to how teachers deliver their classes.
