Hello, My name is Trevor and I am the co-owner at Toronto English (My other academy is called Ron English). I am looking to hire an individual who has teaching experience in Korea and enjoys working with elementary and middle school aged kids. We are looking to add one more teacher to our growing team of teachers as our school expands and student numbers grow. My school’s philosophy is “Simple, Happy, English” and we strive to make our students feel safe and comfortable in our classrooms. Our goal is to provide young learners with a fun, stress free, English environment that fosters a long term interest in English learning.
We value good teachers who like to work in a collaborative environment, sharing ideas and best practices to help eachother grow and improve. The curriculum is all prepared and in place. Teachers do not have to create new worksheets and curriculum. Instead they focus their prep time on how they will teach lessons, such as planning fun and interactive ways to teach or preparing materials for the curriculum as they see fit.
Students attend classes 5 days a week. We cap class sizes at 8 students per class. Monday to Thursday lessons are taught and Friday is a fun activity day. On activity days, students participate in an activity planned by us teachers that is related to weekly themes.
