ALT and Business English Teaching Positions in Northern Kyushu


Enthusiastic, Qualified Teachers are Needed for ALT and Business English Teaching Positions in Northern Kyushu, Japan

Keio Academy, a Japanese company based in Nakatsu-City, Oita Prefecture is seeking 3 enthusiastic, experienced English teachers to work full time beginning in Mid-March. The initial contract time will be for 1 year but can be extended further upon successful completion. We are looking for individuals who have a strong desire to teach and who feel satisfaction helping students reach their goals.

Job Description:

We are hiring for 2 different types of positions:

1. Position for teaching business level (group, TOEIC, private) Jr. High/ High School and adult classes. This will be a position where the hired teacher will travel to schools and businesses of different levels and teach a wide variety of classes.
