We are an accredited online language school seeking passionate Japanese Language instructors to teach high school and middle school Japanese courses online. Our students, typically between the ages of 12 and 18, are primarily learning Japanese to fulfill their high school World Language requirements. We offer a range of courses from Middle School and High School Levels 1-6+, as well as conversational and test prep courses.
Our curriculum aligns with the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Language standards, and we utilize Can-Do Statements and real-world communication contexts instead of traditional textbooks. Instructors are provided with a Resource Library to guide their teaching but are expected to develop and use their own materials. We embrace Project-Based Learning and do not use quizzes, tests, or exams for assessment.
If you are creative, experienced with online teaching, student-centered, and enthusiastic about teaching Japanese as a World Language, we would love to hear from you!
