American English Center, Ukraine's largest English school with 6 locations and more than 2200 students is searching for conversational English instructors for its center of city locations in Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk, and Karkiv. AEC works in cities with populations exceeding 1 million.

Currently we are looking to fill positions beginning in Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, and Kiev. Training for these positions begins on January 11th.

American English Center looks to build a community of like-minded teachers who enjoy spending time with each other professionally and socially.
