Position overview:
Interac Group, Japan's largest private provider of assistant language teachers (ALTs) with over 3,200 teaching employees, is seeking applications from dedicated, professional, motivated, and outgoing people looking to make teaching English in Japan the next stop on their career paths. Interac's ALTs enrich the lives of children by sharing their knowledge of English, building communication skills, and sharing cultural insights. Your job would be two-fold: a language instructor and cultural ambassador. These two aspects are inseparable, and Interac's ALTs aim to become experts in both. Entrusted with being the English expert in the classroom, you could expect to teach on your own, with a Japanese teacher present to help manage the classroom.
While most positions start in March or August of each year (in sync with the Japanese public school calendar), everyone is welcome to apply to be considered for any number of positions at one of Interac’s 15 regional branches around the country.
