In lessons for both the Young Learners and Secondary School English Programs, the Westgate instructor would be the sole instructor in the classroom, not an assistant language teacher. We are accepting applications from overseas and from inside Japan for the in-class teaching positions in the Young Learners English Program and Secondary School English Program.

Westgate aims to shape the future of English education in Japan. We have been providing conversation-based practical English lessons since 1983 and hire over 400 instructors every year. Generations of Japanese students have developed their communicative English skills and cultural awareness through our programs. As well as helping to shape the direction of our students' lives and careers, we have also been a gateway to career development for countless English instructors around the world.
