There is, in Japan, a great demand for native English speakers teaching English, but most of that demand comes from private English conversation schools , or Ekaiwa, or JET, the Japan Exchange and Teaching Program.


Teaching English in Japanese Ekaiwa
Ekaiwa are very common in Japan, and are schools in which those teaching English will be actually offering individual of small class sessions of conversations.

in the US. The premier chains include Geos and ECC, which have upwards of two hundred ekaiwa, but there are thousands of smaller schools. Salaries and working conditions will vary according to the money behind each operation.


Those wanting to teach English in the Japanese ekaiwas can contact one of the recruitment offices that the chain ekaiwa operators have established abroad, in particular in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. While the better schools in the most desirable locations may require degrees in English and teaching experience, many ekaiwa only require a college degree.

Given a choice between the ekaiwa and JET English teaching positions, most of those considering a job in Japan opt for the JET program, which offers better salaries and, most of the time, better working conditions. But if you are young and resourceful, and want to see Japan while getting paid for doing something that is second nature to you–speaking English–an ekaiwa job can be just the ticket!.
