John先生

I have been working for Saiei International for more than 4 years. As a teacher at Saiei, I am expected to go beyond my responsibil ities as a teacher. I also motivate, coach and train my students to be survivors in the global stage.

Our mission is centered on build ing the best foundation for our students by molding them the best they can be as they learn English. Aside from my students, one of the things I like about this job is the opportunity to advance my career as a teacher. Opportunities such as being a trainer, head teacher, and school manager are being offered to qualified candidates.

When I started, I did not know a lot about teaching, but with positive attitude and perseverance, I survived this long.
If I can do it, so can you!
