Teach English in Japan
CITY: Iwate
START DATE: January 2014
SALARY: 250,000yen per month and up
WORKING CONDITIONS:
This position is NOT for those who are shy or those with major homesickness or communication issues nor the self-serving. FRIENDS ENGLISH SCHOOL is however the place for the selfless, dedicated professional with strong leadership, organization, communication and teamwork skills. It is a place for a teacher who is truly kind, loyal and single-minded about leaving the school and students in a better place than when he/she first arrived. As life in the countryside can be more challenging in some ways than that in the city, Morioka is a place only for those who are independent and who genuinely seek a more peaceful, greener and quieter lifestyle.
