Face English Academy is a small foreign owned and run English School in Higashi Totsuka, Yokohama. Established in 2000 we have built a reputation for developing great learning environments for our students.
The teachers have a lot of creative control and freedom within the classroom and are supported by an extensive time tested curriculum.
One of our long term teachers (of 4 years) is moving on to greener pastures and we are currently seeking her replacement. Classes range from kinder kids to adults with the focus on kids classes. So, a motivated and independent teacher who enjoys working with and developing young minds and mature learners alike is necessary.
