The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page http://linguistlist.org/jobnet.html.

This page has been set up so that people can report on the employment
standards of various countries.

University or Organization: Language Institute of Japan
Rank of Job: English Teacher

Description:

		English Teacher

Full time.  Salary:  350,000 yen/month.

Position for teachers who enjoy working with a variety of students in
an array of programs, want to participate in a school on the
institutional level, are highly organized with short/long-term time
management skills, like being part of a team, are keen to be active in
professional development, and are flexible.

Responsibilities include 82+ contact hours/month, and other various
administrative duties.  Write curriculum, develop materials for, and
teach EFL to community course students of all levels from young
children to adults.  Also teach concurrent residential immersion
programs for high school students (large groups) and business
professionals (small groups); prepare and conduct classes during a
one-week summer workshop for teachers of English; and plan and
participate in extracurricular activities.

University degree (MA preferred) and two years teaching both adults
and children required.  Demonstrated interest in teaching children is
important because half of the regular teaching hours are dedicated to
children's classes.  Excellent writing skills are also necessary.
Because of the demanding nature of the position, teachers for whom
learning Japanese or engaging in cultural pursuits is a main priority
are discouraged from applying.  Sponsorship is available.  Seven weeks
paid vacation at set times, completion bonus, paid orientation (at
half salary).  Renewable contract.  Starting date: March 2003.

In your cover letter please indicate where you saw this announcement.
Apply by mail with a) a resume, b) diploma(s), c) an essay (one page
maximum titled "Why I Want to Live and Work in Japan"), and d) three
letters of reference (referees should have first-hand knowledge of
applicant's teaching) to Search Committee, LIOJ (Language Institute of
Japan), Asia Center Odawara, Shiroyama 4-14-1, Odawara, Kanagawa,
