ESL Jobs in Yuxi

Yunnan is the most diverse province in all China, both in its extraordinary mix of peoples and in the splendour of its landscapes. That combination of superlative sights and many different ethnic groups has made Yunnan the trendiest destination for China’s exploding domestic tourist industry.

Our language school in Yuxi was established in 2008 and has been growing ever since, now having over 600 students between the age of 4 to 14 years old. Class sizes are kept small, between 6 to 14 students per class. One of the largest TEFL organizations in Asia, we are a well-respected British company with schools in Taiwan, Vietnam, Japan and China. We were established in Shanghai in 2000 and currently have over 20 schools in China, teaching over 5000 students and employing hundreds of academic and non-academic staff. We expect our teachers to be well trained and motivated. In return, we offer excellent rates of pay as well as on-going personal development and assistance.

On arrival all teachers will undergo an initial week long Young Learners Training Course followed by on-going observation and feedback. We provide our own course materials and books, working to a set syllabus and course guide. This enables us to offer the perfect stress free teaching environment for the teacher to quickly achieve the results and standards that our schools offer to the students. In return for this quality of teaching we take great care of our teachers.

All teachers will be found accommodation on arrival to suit their personal requirements and any initial start-up costs will be covered by the school. Further to the professional support offered by our Academic managers and staff, each school has its own Welfare Officer to cater for any personal/health care a teacher may need during their stay.
