Not bad for part time teaching - English Teacher Benesse BE Studio Employee Review

They provide good training and support to instructors. Pay is average for the role. Lesson plans are provided, which can be good or bad. Good locations and HQ is approachable. I would be happy to work for them again.

You will likely be alone at your plaza, with only your Japanese Lesson Partner. The company is big, but spread out. No coworkers to bond with.

Nice staff and colleagues. Working with kids is fun.

No bonuses or incentives of any kind. Salary is capped at ¥250,000/month with no possibility of further raises, regardless of experience or performance. Workload is disproportionate to the pay — long commutes are common, and staff are sometimes sent as far as Nagoya to cover for absent teachers at short notice.
