Business Outlook
Pros
I work 3 days a week teaching English mostly to kids which gives me flexibility to work on translations at home, my other job. Initial salary was 2100 JPY per hour, which includes prep time. After 1 year the pay was raised to 2300 JPY. I have great experience of working with HR people, was able to take a month off to go back to my country for holidays (non-paid holidays). Easy to take a day off if yourself or your kid gets sick.
Cons
Working on Saturdays (mostly 6-7 lessons, that’s the bread winner) and sometimes on Sundays, i.e. for Halloween event. For hour teachers there is no social package nor health care.
