Teach English in Japan with Global Learning Advancement Department
Join our team of Assistant Language Teachers in Elementary, Junior High School and High Schools throughout Japan.
The NPO GLAD Mission
We are a Non-profit Organization aiming to increase the level of global and cultural understanding between Foreign Teachers and Japanese students.
Bridge Between Japan and the World
With the increasing focus on globalism and cultural appreciation in the world, we believe that foreign teachers are the key to enhancing the lives of the young generation of Japan through education. We do everything possible to help our teachers enjoy their working life in Japan, in hope that their positive experiences would reflect directly on the Japanese students they teach and create a longstanding mutual appreciation between Japan and the world.
Our Passionate Coordinators are Here to Help
Working and living in a different country comes with a number of obstacles. Our coordinators are here to understand, respect and support you inside and outside of the classroom. Whether you require assistance finding an apartment to live in, or advice on teaching techniques, there is no request too big or small for us. We want our teachers to get the most from their experience in Japan with as little stress as possible so they can focus purely on enjoying their time teaching.

Our ALT Team Members
Some messages and kind words from our former and current ALT teachers. Thanks guys!
“I worked with NPO GLAD from 2015 November to 2017 March. It was very good experience.I find the management team led by Megumi very dependable and cooperative. Everyone at NPO GLAD is so quick to help.I would love to go back work again.”
“GLAD set me up in an apartment and helped negotiate the key money down to make things more affordable for me in the beginning. They then helped me establish a bank account within a few days of starting work so as to be paid directly and without delay. When available they have put me at my requested schools. They have given me opportunities for expanding my resume which will help as I look to the future.”
“I can’t thank you enough for all the support you have given me at the beginning, the staff helped me a lot in many matters. I could never have done this without your help. Thank you all.”
