English instructor at Arkgaigo in Innoshima

They seem to want someone from U.S., Australia, U.K., etc. But the town is not suitable for someone from one of these countries. The surrounding area is mainly abandoned buildings and elderly people. The closest bus takes you nowhere and comes every hour. The living conditions are very sad and the school works you like a dog. Slave contract while suffering in the middle of nowhere. Pass.

The work environment is nice and well kept. The students, for the most part, are well behaved and are fun to be with. I found this work experience to be a very low-stress job and would recommend it to anyone who...
