A Bachelor's degree from a four-year university is required. A TESOL or similar teaching degree is preferred. Experience teaching English as a second language is also preferred. Teachers should enjoy working with children, though we have students of all ages.
A company car is provided and, for a small insurance fee, is available for private use. If the teacher chooses to rent an apartment through SES, key money and deposit will be paid for.

Teachers typically sign a contract for one year with a Y50,000 bonus upon completion. It is also possible to renew the contract after one year.
SES, a privately owned company with a staff of native English speakers and English-speaking Japansese teachers, has been providing instruction in English and other foreign languages to Japanese students since 1972. Currently, SES maintains offices in four cities in Yamaguchi Prefecture, with the main office located in Shunan. In addition to classes taught at these offices, SES offers courses in high schools, colleges, corporate offices, community centers and private homes throughout the area. SES also provides translation services.
