You must be RESIDENT in Japan to apply and you must hold a valid visa to work in Japan.

Regarding your visa status, Japanese nationality, permanent resident or spouse visa will be preferred as priority hiring, but appropriate status such as working visa (only Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services ;技術/人文知識/国際業務) and Permission to Engage in Activity Other Than That Permitted under the Status of Residence Previously Granted (資格外活動許可) will be also considered as a candidate. Please include your visa type, status and expiration on your CVs/resumes. CVs/resumes without visa information will not be considered for document screening.

Overseas applicants or applicants without a valid working visa will not be considered. We do not sponsor visas.

When applying, please send your CV/resume along with a recent photo of yourself.

Please apply with your CV/resume for the document screening first.

Seven Seas English Academy (SSEA) is now seeking a part time native English teacher at its new branch in north-west Tokyo (Nerima Ward) as an opening staff member. SSEA is getting a lot of new students and expanding its business despite the economic turbulence under the COVID-19, thanks to its unique style class and the greatest human resources. The candidate will be hired and work with us as the first native English instructor to open our brand new branch.

The ideal applicant is someone who can teach English sincerely and politely, and who can maintain a rapport with our Japanese students. We hope to find a candidate who aims to stay in Japan long-term and is interested in building an understanding of Japanese culture and customs in order to better relate to their students.

Some basic proficiency in Japanese is preferred, but not required. The majority of work is carried out in English and all support staff are English-speaking.

Any prior teaching experience you have will certainly be an advantage, but is not considered mandatory, as we believe the most important attribute for a successful English instructor is your desire and ability to connect with your students. Therefore, we look forward to receiving your application even if you have little to no previous teaching experience or Japanese language ability but have an interest in learning more.

SSEA is a rapidly growing business and the quality of our teaching staff as people is our strongest selling point among our students. We also offer a highly competitive hourly rate, flexible working hours, generous holidays, convenient locations, no strict dress code, and free Japanese tuition for dedicated staff members.

All of this, plus a casual and easygoing environment makes SSEA a great place to work with a unique, close-knit, welcoming atmosphere that is rare among English schools in Tokyo. Those differences are from its unique business management that the school is managed not only by the Japanese founder but also by western executives with flat relationships to realize an ideal workplace. Our aim is not to make large profits, but to improve conversational English education in Japan not as a Japanese company but as a truly international organization where anybody can work comfortably and challenge various things depending on their efforts and capabilities regardless of nationalities, and where nobody can be treated as disposable parts. We look forward to hiring someone who can help us meet that goal!

Our instructors are the first assets of SSEA. Let’s challenge the huge goal together.
