For individuals looking to work in Japan, finding a fair and reliable employer is a necessity. We have all heard of or experienced such stories as “working and not being paid“ or “service overtime”. We at An English Club want those individuals to know that there is a better opportunity out there.

At AECwe always put the wellness of the company first, which means that both our customers and employees don’t lose sleep, knowing that they are part of a strong, stable and lasting organization. Our goal is to provide both our customers and our employees with a learning environment and cross-cultural experience of the highest possible quality.

We would like you to know that we offer a very fair contract compared to other English schools. We have a reputation for being a supportive and fair employer and most of our teachers have come here from other schools. We teach an average of 20-24 hours per week. Our classes are stacked and when your classes are finished for the day, so are you. There are no long breaks between classes, which means some days you are only working for 4-6 hours. Similar companies offer contracts up to 40 hours a week where you must be on location the whole time for the same price. This gives you what money can’t buy, your free time. We offer 7 weeks of vacation, even if it’s your first year, and the support we offer is specific to your needs. We are sure that you, like our current teaching team, will find the experience rewarding.

Rachel 2020

AEC is the workplace where I have felt the most support and recognition for my work as a teacher.

Theo 2020

This job is a great chance to get to work with Japanese kids and have a lot of fun with them while teaching. You will learn about their culture, the things they do, the things their generation like and dislike, etc... You'll be teaching them, but they'll be teaching you too. A lot, sometimes. It's also cool to be team teaching with a Japanese native. You will have a lot of fun together. If you are a great match, the kids will feel it and have so much fun with you.
