We are a private school. We are not recruiters or an agency. Teachers who are hired work at our Joy Children’s Language School campuses.
The city of Shenyang has an extremely low cost of living (especially when compared to Beijing, Shanghai, or southern China) so it is very easy to save a lot of your salary for traveling, sending home, or building savings. It is easy to live well on half your salary or less, leaving the rest for travel, fun, or savings.
Shenyang is ideally situated. There are lots of great things to see and do here, but it's only 4 hours by CRH train to either the bustling city of Beijing or the 'winter' city of Harbin. A slightly shorter train journey will see you in the beautiful seaside city of Dalian.
Joy is a private school and classes are held on weekday afternoons and evenings, and weekends. Because of this schedule there is a lot of free time during the week. It’s a great opportunity for those of you who have hobbies, like to experience new things or just enjoy relaxing but have never had the time.
We also provide:
Airport pick up, local tour and assistance to acclimatize after arrival
Utilities and internet paid
Working Z visa
Resident Permit
Foreign Experts Certificate
Free emergency medical and accident insurance
Training:
Joy classes all follow a structured curriculum. All materials, books, teaching guides, props, posters, DVDs, tapes, etc. are provided at the schools. There is no need to search the internet for class ideas or materials.
You will receive one-on-one training with a Canadian trainer who has worked at Joy for almost 6 years.
You will have the opportunity to observe other teacher’s classes, have assistance preparing your lessons, and practice teaching before you start your first live classes.
Your trainer will provide a high level of feedback, coaching, and ongoing support to enable you to excel.
The atmosphere here is very light-hearted and fun in the classrooms, but we are dedicated to providing the best education for our students. Joy's motto and approach to teaching is: “Learning is Fun”. We play lots of activities and games while teaching English to our young students. Class sizes are small, 15 or fewer students for Pop and 20 or fewer for Young classes.
What Joy needs:
All candidates should be responsible, hard-working, energetic, creative, and fun-loving to teach English to children aged 4 to 16. Full training is provided but you must have the ability to take the information you’ve learned and apply it in your own classes.
Candidates may apply by emailing
a cover letter, resume, college degree, TESOL/TEFL certificate and recent photo to:
