Requirements

They are looking for highly enthusiastic people who will enjoy working with children and teaching them English. They also want people who are able to work independently and meet the challenges of living in a foreign country.
  • All of their foreign teachers must have complete control of the English language, and therefore they focus on native English-speaking candidates.
  • All company employees must be legally eligible to work in Japan. Successful applicants who require Japanese working status may apply for a company sponsored Working Visa (Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services). The minimum requirement for this visa is a degree from a recognized university (or similar qualifications). Applicants who are eligible for other types of visas will be considered.
  • While they prefer applicants who have experience working with children, formal teaching qualifications or previous experience is not required.
  • As part of the employment screening process, applicants will be asked to provide a criminal background check and a note from a physician confirming their good health. Applicants will be responsible for any processing fees.
  • Successful applicants must take an x-ray exam to screen for tuberculosis. Applicants will be responsible for any related fees.
To learn more about work eligibility in Japan, please feel free to contact one of their representatives or visit the Japanese Immigration Bureau's website at https://www.isa.go.jp/en.
