Thank you for taking a look at our job information for Japanese language teachers.
Japanese Learning Support LLC is still recruiting Japanese language teachers.
We are looking for applications from individuals who want to work hard and make the most of their Japanese language teaching qualifications.
●Registered Japanese language teachers
●Those who have passed the Japanese Language Teaching Proficiency Test

Those who majored or minored in Japanese language education at a higher education institution (university or graduate school)
If you meet one or more of the above requirements, your application will be accepted.
Please refer to the following for other matters required for application.
-■You must like the Japanese language or something about Japan and have confidence in it.
Since my job involves conveying Japanese culture (through linguistics), I am always proud to be able to guide my clients, the learners, through their language training. Nationality is not an issue, but language skills of a native Japanese speaker or higher are essential.
-■Being healthy
The job of a professional teacher requires a cheerful, clear and responsible attitude, and the determination to never miss a scheduled lesson.
-■ Foreign language ability
If you have skills, it's great to add value to your work in the area of personal skills. We welcome people with foreign language skills. However, to apply for our teaching job, being fluent in Japanese as a native speaker is a sufficient entry requirement.
-■ About your teaching experience
Experience in any form, whether in school, private lessons, or as a volunteer, is invaluable, but it is not a prerequisite to start working at our company. We also welcome applications from those with no experience as Japanese language teachers. The most important motivations for running a good class are enthusiasm and curiosity, so let's start with us from the very first step.
-■About the Internet environment
This is essential for online classes. Please ensure that you have a good enough connection to smoothly carry out tasks associated with the class, such as creating and editing documents and sharing your screen, while making a video call.
*We are able to accommodate enquiries regarding face-to-face classes only, however being able to run online lessons will broaden the scope of your responsibilities.
-■Operation of electronic devices
Required. *As above, and also for general business purposes such as work related to lessons.
If you have any other concerns, please feel free to contact us by phone or email.

We at Japanese Language Learning Support offer "Japanese as a Foreign Language" lessons every day from 7:30am to 11:30pm Japan time, upon reservation.
Compared to other industries, our job is not particularly high-paying, and the compensation is certainly not high given the burden of the work, but the business we do has an irreplaceable appeal.
● Freedom as an individual business professional
● A business that contributes to society
If you teach 20 one-hour lessons per week, that is roughly 85 lessons per month. *The remuneration is based on 70% of the lesson sales price.
"1,750 yen + 175 yen (consumption tax)" x 85 lessons = 163,625 yen (monthly fee, total amount before withholding tax)
We would like to introduce the services offered by Japanese Learning Support LLC.
Our promise is to provide every student of Japanese with guaranteed progress.
As a team of professional Japanese language teachers, we run private lessons online and in person at our offices.

●Our policy is to offer uniform, affordable prices for everything from your first Japanese lesson to business and exam support.
We respond to the requests of customers (student) during business hours. We do not sell sets of Japanese classes (courses) that specify the number of lessons.
You only pay the tuition fee. We offer tickets for one lesson. *No registration fee or annual fee required.
In November 2022, we incorporated and took over the operations of the former "Koharu Japanese Language Office."
Our mission as professional teachers is to help students of Japanese language to smoothly understand and master the technical system that is Japanese as a single large language, according to their age, occupation, and needs, as well as their background such as their native language and nationality.
Our teachers work hard every day to ensure that customers who book private lessons to improve their Japanese language skills are satisfied.
Let's work hard together as Japanese language teachers in the business world!

2. The process from recruitment to working and employee promotion
Once your employment is confirmed, we will request teaching assignments from the available schedule you have submitted.
First, let's get used to private lessons at our company, one step at a time.
At the start of your work, you will be responsible for our work on a contract basis.
This is also a trial period for us to take lessons together as teammates in the future.
This is a training period where you will get to know our company from the inside while performing your duties, and also acquire the skills required of a teacher working in private learning support.
Learn how to behave in the classroom (mainly online meetings) and how to respond to a wide range of learning needs and corresponding teaching materials.
■ Japanese conversation support from beginner to advanced level
■ Managing classes for exams, including the JLPT exam
■ Japanese language training for business people
■ Pronunciation correction

As you can see, the work is quite diverse. You will acquire the specialized classroom activity management skills required for each learning goal.
If you wish, we have a path to promote you to full-time employment. Benefits will be considered based on your performance and attendance. As a guideline, you will need to have been teaching at our company for more than three months.
Full-time employee, monthly salary from 220,000 yen, etc.
*Social insurance provided, paid vacation 10 days or more per year after 6 months of continuous employment, overtime allowance for late night, holidays, and busy periods
3. Basic benefits
Regardless of employment status, the following are basic benefits for working at our company.
The closing date is the last day of each month. Payment will be transferred to your bank account on the 15th of the following month.
Starting from one hour once a week, we can flexibly accommodate your desired shifts.
Fully telecommutable
Subsidy for purchasing teaching materials available
Technical guidance support available
I've tried to highlight the key points of the process from applying for a job at our company to being hired and starting work. I hope this gives you an idea of the outline.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have about applying, or if you have any questions about starting your business.
Our company sells tickets for both online and face-to-face lessons under almost the same conditions, but learning through online meetings has advantages such as allowing you to make use of busy time and being able to take lessons in the relaxing environment of your own room, while face-to-face lessons have the same sense of realism.
It is not recommended to choose one plan over the other in terms of achieving better learning outcomes in terms of learning Japanese itself, so the plan you purchase will depend on your convenience and preferences.
This is no different for teachers, but I think that by teaching online as a profession, they can discover a different kind of life-work balance every day .
"If I work through online lessons, I can work completely from home!"
- You can balance your schedule with your family, side jobs, etc. Of course, you will need a certain amount of vitality, but you should be able to take on economic activities that are impossible with a commuter job.
- You can work comfortably even in summer and winter, so you can work calmly. You don't have to worry about transportation problems, and commuting time is added to your own time, so it's efficient.
- You can work from anywhere! Our office is in Shinjuku, but you can work as one of our employees (teammates) no matter where you live, and you can even get work done while traveling, for example.
Of course, you will need to prepare an internet connection and take into consideration the surrounding environment, such as the room in which you keep your computer, and it's not all convenient, but I believe that engaging in online work can offer great potential in helping to enrich your life.
Finally, I would like to tell you two things that I believe are essential if you want to succeed in your personal professional career as a Japanese language teacher.
Private lessons require a commercial sense of selling the improvement of skills.
In online lessons, the passion conveyed through video calls will be the fuel that determines the results of your studies.
Thank you very much for reading the article about Japanese Learning Support LLC's job information today.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude for your interest in our Japanese language teaching services.
We look forward to receiving applications from individuals who wish to work as Japanese language teachers.
We hope that we can make a good connection and that our work can be of help to you.
Representative teacher Toshiyuki Kusuda
