ESL Jobs in Hangzhou

We are currently looking for professional and dynamic English teachers to teach young learners at our English training schools in the beautiful city of Hangzhou. We have 5 centres across the city and are looking for teachers who enjoy working with children, thrive in a supportive team environment and can deliver fun, creative and engaging lessons.

Our students are aged 3 to 8 years old and class sizes are kept small, with 8 to 12 students per class. This allows teachers to build strong relationships with students and create an active, student-centred classroom environment.

Our school offers an authentic American classroom experience, with a core subject curriculum covering Language Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies. The curriculum is designed to help students develop English communication skills, digital literacy, critical thinking and bilingual skills.

Teachers are provided with textbooks, lesson plan templates, activity books, story books, multimedia devices and teaching software. This gives teachers a clear structure to follow while still allowing room for creativity, classroom games and interactive activities.

All new teachers will receive professional pre-job training and ongoing academic support. Teachers work closely with Chinese teachers to create a positive classroom environment and ensure smooth communication with students and parents.
