▲ Position: Kindergarten Only
▲ Driving: Would be required

While this position lasts only from late August until the end of December, we will also have full time positions available in Setouchi from April 2022. In addition to Setouchi, we are also looking for ALTs for full time positions in other areas across central Japan in places such as Nagoya in Aichi Prefecture, Ogaki and Shirakawa Village in Gifu Prefecture, and Jinsekikogen in Hiroshima Prefecture. Please note that we DO NOT have anything in the greater Tokyo Area.

---What We Offer---

We want to support your growth and development to become a great ALT. The skills and experiences you will gain with us, will greatly benefit you in various ways for your future career. But don’t take our word for it, see for yourself what others say on sites like Glassdoor and Reddit.

---Benefits---

▲ Industry-leading training: tailored to your needs, taught by highly skilled trainers, hands-on, ongoing year-round, and professional development for your future career
▲ Resources and materials: access to top-quality educational resources anytime through our members website including storyboards, flashcards, songs, example lesson plans and more
▲ Visa Sponsorship

---Key Qualifications---

▲ Native English speaker
▲ Bachelor's degree (or higher)
▲ Engaging, enthusiastic, and motivated to provide a positive communicative experience for students
▲ Flexible, culturally sensitive, and eager to live in Japan for a minimum of one year
▲ Previous teaching experience ranging from ALT to ESL tutoring within Japan or in other countries
▲ Must have at least a basic level of Japanese with a conversational level being strongly preferred
▲ Previous time spent studying or working in Japan is preferred
▲ As many ALT positions do require driving, applicants who can or would be able to drive in Japan on either a Japanese license or International Driving Permit are preferred

---The Role---

An ALT’s work in public schools centers around creating positive interactions with the students both inside and outside the classroom and helping to provide enjoyable and energetic lessons. ALTs also develop and maintain a positive and supportive professional relationship with Japanese teachers by assisting with various tasks during the school year. ALTs will experience prolonged periods of standing, walking, and stair climbing. ALTs will also be encouraged to perform high energy movements such as running and playing with students. To help you find success in this role, our ALTs are frequently evaluated throughout the year based on their lesson’s clarity, how supportive they are, and the overall atmosphere they help to create in the classroom. We are dedicated to helping our ALTs grow and improve for their future success by offering ongoing advice, feedback, and more.

Working as an ALT is a great opportunity to improve your Japanese language ability, experience and appreciate cultural differences, and most importantly, to be positively involved with the development and well-being of Japanese students.

---The Application Process---

Once we receive your resume and cover letter, we will only reply to qualified applicants via email. Those that pass our subsequent screening questionnaire will then be invited to an interview. Unfortunately, due to the current conditions caused by the coronavirus, we will be forgoing our normal face-to-face interviews and instead temporarily resort to a Skype-only system for all applicants.

Successful applicants will need to be available for a full 4-day Orientation/Training session before starting in school. If you are interested in applying, please visit our Recruiting website for further details about ALTIA CENTRAL.
