The Job
Our school is now recruiting energetic, motivated and creative English teachers who have strong passion in teaching young learners between 5 to 12 years old in the most vibrant cities in Shanghai or Beijing. We help develop and enhance our young learners critical thinking and communication skills in a multi-disciplinary environment to become wellrounded thinkers. With strong emphasis on excellence, we have adapted the programs from selected primary schools in the United States. We use a variety of subjects including literature, history, social studies and science to train students to think and effectively communicate their ideas. We encourage our young learns to learn how to think, not what to think.

Our unique school has Library and Core Course programs which offer guided independent reading in our library of more than 7,000 audio books and regular books as well as literature and writing classes. Our young learners can choose among these books and read by themselves with the help and support of a coach. We aim to provide a life-changing experience to every young learner and try to match or even exceed their dreams and passions. Together, we can nurture the future generation to become the best and the brightest.

With small class sizes of 6 to 8 students, teachers and students have plenty of time to interact with each other and allow learners to discuss and present their projects during the class. Students and teachers have access to a wide range of state of the art teaching technology such as computers, iPads and other multi-media facilities. We also provide excellent, professional pre-job and on the job training to teachers. We welcome ideas and creativity from our foreign teachers to help further develop our curriculum.
