AeonA Large Chain of English Schools throughout Japan
Matt and I used to have lunch twice a week when we taught together at a university in Japan. Certainly you could do a lot worse than teaching English in Japan for a large, solid company like Aeon. My friend David feels they are the best large chain English school in Japan now. The company is one of the BIG four chain of English schools in Japan. They have hundreds of branches all over Japan and they recruit from offices in North America. They have offices in: Toronto, L.A., Chicago, New York City, and Sydney, Australia. Kiyoshi Aki and Tsuneo Kusunoki founded the original company in 1973. They were roommates at the time. This new company focused on foreign language studies.
This company eventually split into GEOS (another large chain in Japan) and continued under the original name. GEOS` focus was global language learninng. The head office is in Okayama. There are three types of schools: A: accepts adults only B: Accept adults and children C: accepts only children Address: 1960 E Grand Ave 550,El Segundo, CA 90245 USA Tel 310-414-1515 Email: Email them! One year contract, Work five days/week, Hours: 12-9PM and 1-9PM (3 days) Salary: 250,000/Mth Apartment provided, subsidized rent. Check on present rental fees. This school is arguably a good place to start for young teachers or teachers who have found it difficult to get a job with a smaller school. They will train you and you will get your feet wet with Japanese students. Students who can be a challenge, especially until you learn what works and what doesn`t with particular groups. The chain has more than 3,000 employees and more than 100,000students. It employs over 800 teachers in Japan. Their main focus is on adult education but they of course teach other age groups. Amity is their group of schools that specializes in teaching English to children. Arnold of Kalifornia Calls Aeon hoping for a job. I guess things are getting tight
in office.
"Just been doing a spot of marking: 'My family live in Gunma. Gunma is a beard forum.' 'There are 4 people and two bogs in my family.' 'Holiday, I go to fishing with my friend for liver. My friend has a boot. I get on the boot for fishing. It is very fun.' 'I study to be public officer. I go to dabble school.'"
