Vantaggi

Spacious building (though going up and down with small kids is an issue and some rooms are rather small) There are some good and talented teachers- though there's too much pressure on updating daily blogs and activities with pictures, so there's no time for socializing nor exchanging teaching tips with anyone!

Svantaggi

The director/owner's behaviour was odd and rude once I gave them my notice, while it had not been so while I was on their 'good books'. Salary is not great nor the most competitive in the market, and the work load is just too much, and I am a hard worker. They don't pay you for the months of the summer holidays, you have to come up with an innovative, fun and creative workshop that the kids may want to attend and they pay you according to how many kids enroll. Needless it is to say this does not encourage good relations between colleagues/direct competitors... HUUUUGE rotation. Not many teachers stay past a few months, especially for the lower grades. There's more emphasis in you taking pictures of the kids at all times and posting them on the parents/school board daily than in the activities you do. Not a school I would send my child to nor one I can actually teach content.

Vantaggi

- Staff are encouraged to be creative as teachers, artists, educators, and to grow as humans. - Lots of efforts to support local and national charitable organisations: giving back is very important to the founder, clients, staff, and community -- and it is meaningful to work in a place where children are being passed these values! - If you can dream it and build it, you can do it! - The children are sweet, and they learn so quickly. They look up to their teachers and form quick bonds. - Administrative support with immigration, and lots of friends to help with adjusting to life in Japan, if you are joining as a foreigner. - Beautiful location; outdoor space on the rooftop. - Wages are very competitive! - The staff are very artistically talented and inspiring. - Parents are appreciative and kind.

Svantaggi

Working in an early childhood setting requires a lot of energy and the ability to think on one's feet and be flexible. You must always think several steps ahead about children's safety, about their best interests, and you must be communicative, neat, responsible, and always have a positive forward-facing demeanor. This can be difficult so this type of work isn't for everyone, but the challenges at Kspace are not unique to this school. They are universal, in my opinion.
