school age, with
small class sizes. If you are looking to teach adult students we offer positions in cities
throughout
China, and the Saudi Arabia roles are teaching everyday English and business English to
adults in the
capital city, Riyadh.
Get in touch if you are interested in any of these positions!

Details: Due to the increase of the number of students we are adding two classes in January
2018.
ISN (International School of Nagano) is an English-Japanese, bilingual preschool and
elementary school situated in Matsumoto City in Japan’s beautiful Nagano Prefecture,
serving families in Matsumoto and surrounding communities. With five, great capacity
classrooms plus a jungle-gym playroom in our Minami-Matsumoto Campus (preschool),
we have soon-to-be-opened a second campus in Shimauchi Campus (preschool and
elementary school) and in 2017 we are enrolling students from 2 years old, up to and
including Grade 4. ISN is an IB candidate school (July 2017).
We are a wonderfully diverse school, currently serving about 120 students with a vibrant
and dedicated faculty, devoted parents, and a committed Board of Education. ISN’s
teacher to student ratio is on average 1:15 and this exceptionally low ratio enables our
experienced teachers to readily conduct an IB based approach to the curriculum. The
main duty of the teacher is to lead their class with excitement and passion for a world
class education, while implementing an enquiry-based approach to instruction.
Candidates should have experience in collaborative leadership, high expectations for
faculty, staff, and all students, and be able to inspire the whole school.
