Language Arts Instructor for International School Students

職務内容

AIM Academy is currently looking for a professional and experienced tutor who is capable of teaching English analysis at a high school level.

This is not an ESL teaching position; students are native English speakers, studying the International Baccalaureate (IB) at various international schools.

Lessons will be conducted in person at our academy in Motomachi-Chukagai, Yokohama.

Suitable candidates must demonstrate capability of and/or experience teaching:

• Elementary language arts (reading, writing, spelling and grammar)
• Middle school language arts (reading and essay writing)

The ideal candidate can demonstrate, in addition to the above subjects, capability of teaching one or more of the following subjects:

• Math (elementary to calculus with the higher grades focused on the IGCSE/IB curriculum)
• Sciences (chemistry, physics and biology at a level equivalent to the IGCSE and/or IB curriculum)
• Social sciences and humanities
• TOK
• SAT

Working hours:

Hours for this position start at 1-2 day per week, 2-3 hours per day, and may increase with time.

Lessons are held between Monday-Friday 15:00-20:30

The work schedule is flexible, dependent on your availability and client demand within the above working hours. Part-time and contract work (set number of hours promised per week) available.

*Exceptional candidates can be considered for a full-time position.

All lessons are taught in a 1-to-1, 1-to-3 or group setting and entirely in English. Each lesson varies between 1-2 hours in length. We also have a number of students who come in for make-up lessons, so you should expect some irregular lessons to be booked throughout the month.

Starting Salary:

• 2500 yen/hour for elementary school level lessons
• 3000 yen/hour for Gr.6-10 level lessons
• ¥1000/hour for training sessions

Transportation will be compensated up to 1000 yen/day
