Casual English Cafe & Bar, Experienced and Energetic English Instructors Wanted! (expired)

ABOUT US
We are an English language cafe with our own twists!

We offer optional English-learning-oriented boardgames/cardgames in the afternoon, and an English language bar in the evening. The concept is to provide the benefits of free conversation with the structure and reliable, measurable growth of formal lessons.

This is delivered in a relaxed and fun atmosphere where learners can practice using English in a natural environment, while having the valuable ability to ask specific questions about English as they come to mind during the conversation.

To achieve this, we are looking for Instructors who can guide the conversations, pausing to explain language questions with a mini whiteboard as necessary, before moving on.

We are expecting to target learners in their 20s.

We will pre-open early June, with an official open in August.

As a new business, we are looking to foster an open, entrepreneurial environment, where you may have opportunity to contribute new ideas. We may also be able to offer exciting career opportunities as the business grows.
