About CAN!P English School
CAN!P English School is a bilingual after-school program in Fukuoka, Japan, where children discover joy in learning through real-world experiences. Operated by SKT Inc., we provide meaningful English education for children aged 1 to 12. Our mission is to spark curiosity, encourage creativity, and support bilingual growth—not through rote learning, but through play, exploration, and emotional connection.
Our Philosophy
We believe teachers are not just instructors—they are advisors and co-learners. At CAN!P, children and educators grow together through cycles of action, reflection, failure, and progress. Learning should be exciting, empowering, and rooted in the child’s desire to understand the world.

Please mention that you found the job on Teast for the school's reference.
📌 Please review the requirements to teach English in Japan before you start applying for teaching positions. If the job post specifies "NES" or "Native English Speaker", it typically means applicants are required to be from one of the following countries: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, or South Africa. However, in some cases, this may indicate a preference rather than a strict requirement.
⏳ 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!
