About Us:
We are not a training center. We are a library-centered school helping kids (6-15) fall in love with reading, writing, and critical thinking. Using stories as our core, we build thinkers, not just test-takers.
The Role:
Curriculum: 11-level proprietary system. Max 8 students/class.

Autonomy: Design your own short courses for holiday terms.
Responsibilities:
Lead small groups using picture/chapter books; teach literary analysis through meaning (never dry drills); coach reading habits; collaborate with a global team; and enjoy WFH hours for planning after your first semester.
Requirements:
Bachelor's Degree + 2+ years post-grad work experience (non-teaching experience required for visa).
Native/Advanced English; Teaching exp. preferred.
Must be willing to relocate to Shanghai.
Compensation:
💰 ¥22,500/month + performance bonus.
🏠 Relocation support: Visa sponsorship, arrival assistance, accommodation help, and one-way flight (for overseas hires).
🏥 Private medical insurance + 7+ days paid leave.
⏳ 2-month mutual trial period.
To Apply:
