Full-TimeLanguage SchoolEnglish / ESL / TEFLJob Description:
Tired of chain-school scripts, crowded classrooms and Saturday shifts? Come teach somewhere that does it differently.
American English 埃森美語 is a small, government-registered English school in central Banqiao, New Taipei City. Our founder is a University of Michigan graduate and US-licensed teacher who still teaches every day. We're not a franchise. We experiment, measure what works, and keep only what gets kids speaking. The result is a curriculum we developed in-house and have proven in our own classrooms. Now we're growing, and we want one more great teacher on the team.
WHY TEACHERS LOVE IT HERE
• Monday–Friday, 5:00–8:30 pm. Saturday 10:00-12:00. Your mornings and weekends are yours.
• Small classes, real teaching: 12 students or fewer, so you actually know every child and see them improve.
• 90-minute lessons with room to go deep, not 40-minute rushes from one class to the next.
• A curriculum that works. Developed and refined in our own classrooms, with materials ready for you, so you spend your time teaching, not scrambling to build lessons.
• Mentored by a US-licensed teacher. You'll work directly with the founder, not a manager who's never taught.
• Your ideas matter. We're small enough to try new things, and good ideas end up in the curriculum.
• Easy commute: 11–12 minutes on foot from Banqiao Station (MRT Blue Line, HSR and TRA) or Fuzhong Station.
PAY & BENEFITS
• NT$62,000–90,000 per month, depending on experience and qualifications
• ARC / work permit sponsorship
• Labor Insurance and National Health Insurance
• Start date: November 2026
THE CLASSES

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• Bachelor's degree (required for a Taiwan work permit), or an existing open work permit / APRC
• Native-level English
• Experience teaching kids, a teaching license or a TEFL certificate is a big plus
• Energy and warmth in the classroom, and you care about pronunciation and getting every child to speak up
• Someone who wants to stay, grow, and help build something good

📌 You need to be from one of the following counties to teach English in Taiwan: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa.

⏳ Due to the high number of applications the schools receive they may not be able to respond to every application. If you don't hear back from them within a week or so, it's best to move on to the next job.
⚠️ When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy anything which they then pay you back for later. NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING! Also always verify you're actually talking to the company in the job post and not an imposter. Scams in TEFL are rampant, be careful!
