We pride ourselves in providing a professional and supportive work environment. We are currently home to more than 20 full-time English-speaking teachers from all over the world. This number will only increase as the school continues to expand.
We have branches spread throughout Hsinchu County. We are primarily based in Zhudong Township and Zhubei City.

Taiwan is a very friendly country with a rich history and culture. Taiwan also has a well-developed public transit system, meaning it’s very easy and convenient to get around.
