In Japan, English education is a highly competitive industry. To be successful, it is essential that your school has ready access to reliable, dedicated, and service-oriented teaching staff. However, due to the competitive nature of this industry, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find quality teachers.

Through our careful recruiting process and personalized approach to assessing and matching the needs of your school, English Tree is fully committed to providing your company with quality teaching staff, fully-suited to your individual needs.



Save Time, Effort and Money
Doing your own, in-house recruiting of foreign workers demands a lot of time and money. Writing and submitting job ads to foreign publications, traveling overseas to screen, interview and hire staff is very costly and time consuming. Further, arranging work visas and understanding the complexities of immigration rules and procedures associated with hiring foreign staff can lead to a great deal of confusion and frustration. English Tree will guide you through this process to ensure all of your hiring goes as quickly and smoothly as possible.

We are here to get you the qualified staff you need with minimum cost and effort on the part of your school.
